1. The new bypass is meant to reduce traffic at the six roads junction ..however, a new development would mean substantial new traffic outside our homes and of course at the six roads junction ( which with the new school location will be significantly busier than present anyway )

2. The River Gwendraeth runs straight through the middle of this land and development would have a detrimental effect on the habitat that surrounds the river.

3. Marsh fritillary butterflies breed on the flora and fauna in these fields and development would wipe these out.

4. A few pairs of red kites also keep returning to this location , so they also would be disturbed.

5. The boundaries between Gorslas and its surrounding villages and communities are already blurred and any development on this land would substantially blur the boundary.

6. The land adjoining this parcel is SSSi and therefore it's important that the wider area is protected to allow the natural habitat to be able to support wildlife.
