Probably not relevant although would depends on whether the Gipsy / Travellers were Welsh speaking.
Access to local amenities from the site is poor. There is no public transport or safe (walking) route to Cowbridge / Pencoed, therefore journeys will need to be by car. The road is narrow and access for emergency services would be difficult.
The scale of the proposed number of pitches poses a real risk of escalating fear and tension within the local community, which would be contrary to encouraging and developing good relations between Gypsy Travellers and the settled community.
Furthermore, the independent inspector’s report concluded the site was only suitable for 2 pitches after reviewing all the evidence.
For the reasons set out above, the allocation of the site at Llangan for additional Gypsy and Traveller pitches is not justified and is inconsistent with the Council’s own policy framework and previous legal commitments relating to the land.
