Keep designation.

I support the designation of the Green Wedge between Llanmaes and Llantwit Major (Site ID 436 – Proposal DNP2(6)). Protecting this land is important to prevent the visual and physical coalescence of the two settlements, maintain the rural character of the area, and preserve the setting of the Llanmaes Conservation Area.

I object to the proposed retail development at Bridge House Farm (Site ID 379 – Proposal SP12(2)). The scale and nature of the development would represent a significant intrusion into the countryside, contribute to the merging of Llantwit Major and Llanmaes, and be harmful to the landscape and the setting of the Llanmaes Conservation Area. The site is also outside the RLDP’s defined Strategic Growth Area.

For these reasons I urge the Council to support the Green Wedge designation and reject the retail allocation at Bridge House Farm.
