There is absolutely no certainty that the Waste Water Treatment Plant will have capacity or that there will be funding for sufficient upgrades. There are already hours of outages into Chichester Harbour. To satisfy the housing numbers by putting homes on this site in a semi- rural village so close to the AONB is completely wrong.

This is a wholly inappropriate location for the 300 planned homes. It will impact on the long-distance views and the connectivity between the AONB and SDNP. It is in precisely the location where there is open countryside to both sides of the road, the setting of the AONB will be harmed. It is on good agricultural land and open countryside. The settlement gap will all but disappear between Bosham and Fishbourne, resulting in coalescence and suburban sprawl.
