This development site is open countryside and will destroy the current biodiversity. The impact of this development will be huge on not only Rutland villages but Stamford and especially with levels transport congestion and insufficient services especially healthcare. This is also inConflict with Rutland’s vision for sustainable communities.

This plan will remove the wildlife and flora , it will make what is a beautiful,open wild space into a controlled park land. No thought has been given to the SSSI and the scheduled monument opposite the development. as Stamford and the surrounding areas have all been affected by the recent flooding we should be making sure that we keep the natural sponges in ares where flooding is possible. Also it seems that Rutland County Council are not using a site St George’s barracks that is far more suitable for large development.

I live around the corner from Quarry Farm, I'm very concerned of the impact all these new homes will have on the infrastructure of the town. The new houses do Not contribute towards Lincolnshires own housing targets yet the people that live in these home will be added to the GP, schools and impacting on other community resources, with rutland claiming the financial benefits!

The development sits in open countryside and is an area of unique biodiversity which cannot be replaced or recreated by a 'country park.' The increase in traffic will place strain on the already very busy Casterton road. Children walking/biking to Casterton schools will be at risk from the increase in traffic.

Reason's for objection include a lack of confidence in the proposed infrastructure being able to support the development and a lack of confidence that promised additional facilities to support the increasing population won't suffice - Stamford already struggles with provision here (e.g. Drs surgeries). I also have reservations around the environmental impact. I will sue Rutland council if this goes ahead and we are negatively impacted despite the objections.

This proposed development would be detrimental to the infrastructure of Stamford as it would lead to increased traffic on the town's roads which are already congested; greater problems with parking due to the town's limited number of parking spaces; increased demands on the emergency services as well as dentists and doctors which are already stretched to the limit; increased strain on services such as water and sewage; increased pressure on secondary education. It would mean the loss of a candidate local wildlife site situated in open countryside.

Stamford does not the capacity to accept more housing. The current infrastructure is not in keeping with an increased population. Stamford is a unique world heritage site and needs to be preserved.

The 650 Stamford North dwellings will be so far from Stamford town centre that services such as shops, schools and surgeries will be almost impossible to reach on foot; trapping residents into car-dependence and adding thousands of extra car journeys to the town’s roads.

Neither Sidney Farm Lane nor Arran Road are capable of accommodating the volume of traffic that the proposed ‘distributor road’ connecting Ryhall Road to the Old Great North Road would likely bring to the area.

The Sidney Farm Lane/ A1 slip road junction is already hazardous. The proposed ‘distributor road’ would make it even more dangerous.

The narrow country lanes around this development are already used as rat runs and at capacity, the A606 junction with the A1 at peak times is a death trap, this will get worse as there is no work in Stamford. There are no services/supermarkets in northwest Stamford, no NHS dental spaces, failing doctors surgery, most secondary school children are bused elsewhere and are walking on inadequate footpaths from 7:30am when it is dark. The new social housing occupants will be stuck in a town with limited public transport and unaffordable shops for essential living purchases.

This is a Candidate Wildlife site as designated by the existing Biodiversity plan for Rutland so building should not be considered for this sight Also recent high rainfall has left this site waterlogged. Also to be considered there are not enough doctors, dentists and school places for the amount of extra people who would be living there There are no supermarkets on this side of town and the parking in nearby Stamford is horrendous apart from the extra traffic which would be created which the present road system could not cope with.

This proposal would contribute to the destruction of the character and nature of Stamford, considered a jewel. The lives of anyone living nearby and in villages abutting the site would be forever plagued by the traffic, noise, light and air pollution delivered by this brutal plan. It is astonishing that with all the environmental damage already done that anyone with an eye to the future would ever consider it a good idea to destroy a unique parcel of land on which local people may experience that rare sense of nature and communal freedom.

This community development is not sustainable and would place unprecedented pressure on education and health care services.
The significant increase in traffic would make Stamford roads congested and dangerous - especially given that all amenities are the other side of town.RCC have previously have had a policy against building in open countryside and there is no reason why Quarry farm should be the exception.

Stamford is already highly congested and building Stamford North and/or Quarry Farm will bring Stamford and surrounding areas to a standstill. There is no way sufficient transport infrastructure can be added to accommodate the higher population. The historic nature of Stamford, the character and qualities it brings to the local area will be destroyed losing vital revenue from the tourist industry. There is not the infrastructure re. schools, healthcare, roads, town parking etc to accommodate so many houses. Quarry farm is ecologically important and a huge asset both environmentally and to the local community.

I strongly object. Surely there are more suitable sites to build new dwellings in Rutland, like St Georges Barracks that would not impact on Stamford. We currently have major problems with congestion in and around Stamford as the infrastructure is insufficient. Lakeside Healthcare is currently over-stretched and unable to meet the town's needs. If this development was to go ahead it would only be a bad thing for Stamford and it's residents.

Quarry Farm is a significant local wildlife site, including category A woodland, diverse plant species and wildlife. It is inappropriate for lots of housing especially considering the fact that Rutland's local plan emphasises protection of wildlife. Previously RCC was against building in open countryside - why the change of plan ?- there are surely more viable sites such as the empty St George's Barracks. I have concerns about a sustainable community - public services are already overstretched and there is nothing within these proposals to counter that. Further concerns regarding access and traffic in an already congested area.

This proposed development would cause destruction of valuable grade 2 and 3 agricultural land. With food scarcity on the government agenda, it should be scrapped and brownfield sites developed in its place (St George's Barracks for example). The infrastructure isn't in place to cope with this development and the negative impact on ecology, pollution, roads and medical accessibility would make it a disaster. The community as a whole are against this development for good reason. Destruction of ancient woodland and a candidate wildlife site because "the road needs to go there for the scheme to work" is unacceptable.

The proposal is not truly sustainable nor environmentally optimum, especially compared to - St Georges Barracks, Luffenham & Martin's Park , Stamford., No evidence is given regarding assured local employment opportunities - and matched affordable housing. The site is a Local Candidate Wildlife site and supports Rutland's environmental strategy (commitment) - especially its Nature Recovery Strategy (EN2), Biodiversity Action Plan and previous CS4 policy commitment to not build in open countryside. The proposal is totally reliant on service and infrastructure of Stamford (within SKDC).
