I have concerns over the inclusion of certain candidate sites:

367-my concern is this site is on the side of a hill where water run-off if a large housing development went ahead could adversely affect the road below.
Also, my understanding is that it would be close vicinity to an iron age fort, which is a significance.

Sites 438 and 440 would put tremendous pressure onto the barely adequate road infrastructure in that area and also create a hazard for traffic pulling out onto the B4270 at the cross Inn. It would also my view be an unnecessary intrusion into the open countryside.

Site 455, again I think would put a lot of pressure on the road infrastructure and traffic lights at Cowbridge and again be an unnecessary intrusion into the open countryside. And would adversely affect the aesthetics of the gateway to Cowbridge which partly gives the town so much of its charm!

I think a very sensible inclusion is 448 the airfield and brownfield site at Llandow. My understanding is that with a little effort a new rail link could be established for this site which would be very sensible with regard to taking pressure from the road network.

Please let me know if it is not acceptable for me to comment on a number of sites in one email and I will gladly send other emails for each site individually.
