Cyngor Bro Morgannwg
Vale of Glamorgan Council

The site are 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 local area. Realistically, anyone living in this location will rely on private cars to get to and from the site for work, shops primary school in Llangan. 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. this proposal will impact on the rural nature of the area being opposite to recent housing development it would make the area feel crowded. the traffic from the site would make the busy road even worse. speeding is already a problem there and increased traffic increases the risk of accidents. this site is noted as having historical significance, possibly iron age or earlier. the open nature of that site from history would be impacted negatively.
