LATE RESPONSE In summary, the characters of Denham and of Barrow are quite different and should be kept so, a fact specifically acknowledged by Vision 2031.

LATE RESPONSE. strongly feel that some of the potential Denham development sites should not be included as they:- 1) Are inappropriate in scale to a small linear village such as Denham 2) Would destroy the ‘green gap’ that presently exists between the village of Barrow and the linear village of Denham. If developed they would join the villages of Barrow and Denham together.

LATE RESPONSE Objection to WS306, WS307, WS564, WS565 and WS566. Completely disproportionate in scale and shape for a small linear village such as Denham; the green space between Barrow and Denham would disappear, and Denham would become ‘absorbed’ by Barrow rather than retaining its separate identity and distinct boundary.

LATE RESPONSE I would like to express to you my concerns regarding the proposed development land in the Barrow and Denham area, with regard to the inclusion of sites WS306, WS307, WS564, WS565 and WS566.

LATE RESPONSE I find it upsetting that more land in the Barrow and Denham area have been proposed for even more residential housing sites, with regard to the inclusion of sites WS306, WS307, WS564, WS565 and WS566. Considering the large number of sites that have been allocated and developed in recent years, I find this difficult to agree with. In particular I have huge reservations about the proposed land in Denham.

LATE RESPONSE I find it impossible to understand why the latest consultations on the proposed plans have completely ignored the many representations already put forward by the residents of the unique and historic hamlet of Denham with regard to the inclusion of sites WS306, WS307, WS564, WS565 and WS566.

The Parish boundary dividing Barrow and Denham runs right through the middle of WSO12a, a site specified as 'Included Housing'. This could set a precedent for Barrow being allowed to merge with Denham. Rural Vision

You will be aware that there has been extensive local resistance to the prospective sites that have been put forward in Barrow, which are being collectively challenged by the community action group Barrow Ducks https://www.barrowducks.com. To avoid repetition it is not our intention to repeat the arguments put forward by Barrow Ducks in terms of the wider threat to Barrow village through insensitive and disproportionate new development, specifically via site WS012a.

The primary school is a 1FE school that is at maximum capacity for current residents. The school site is restricted. Any further development within the village will mean children travelling to school as they can’t get a place in the village school where they live.
