Building this enormous structure right next to an ancient woodland that appears in the Doomsday book is appalling. The traffic movements per day alone will impact on this precious site, changing it forever destroying biodiversity, creating light and noise pollution impacting critically on wildlife. This is a travesty for the entire region, a blight on the future communities living in this area and in my opinion a criminal impact on wildlife and diversity. It is completely unnecessary and the "consultation" farcical. This is right next door to wellused ancient woodland. The impact of this massive build.on a site mentioned in the doomsday book will be huge. The light pollution, noise, increased traffic on an already pressured road system is intolerable with new sites opening up around hinckley. No one who lives near here would allow this huge, unnecessary build. Concerns about impact in ancient woodland, impact with light pollution, impact on current road infrastructure and insufficient mitigating factors, impact on parking roads, wildlife and impact on residents
