The scale of the site is completely out of character with the close by hamlet of Llangan. It would increase what is a small rural community by 300-400%. the RLDP acknowledges that Llangan is not a significant enough community to be able to bear such expansion. there are no local facilities, shops, health services meaning many additional car journeys that are polluting. there is not safe pedestrian access to the site to the school. there is a risk of flooding, particularly on the western end of the site and the ground is waterlogged for many months of the year.
The site is located in the rural Vale, surrounded by open countryside and 7 miles from Cowbridge and 8 miles from Bridgend. The scale of the site is completely out of character with the close by hamlet of Llangan . Anyone living in this location will rely on private cars to get to and from the site for work, shops and everything except the primary school that is within walking distance via an unlit road with no pavements. The nearest small shop is in Pencoed to which there is no public transport. Otherwise it is necessary to drive to Cowbridge or Bridgend or one of the large supermarkets on the edge of Bridgend. Access to the site is via small single lane country roads that are not suited to high volume traffic or emergency services. In addition, the area is a C2 flooding zone, making it unsuitable for building.
