Removing the bungalow 'Emmaville' would change the character of the village. The construction of 100 houses is completely unacceptable due to the extra traffic this would produce, the nearest supermarket although not a long distance away (approx 2 miles) is down a very steep hill. No One could carry their shopping back up the hill. Therefore all 100 houses would need a car (or 2 cars).This will produce even more traffic coming through the village. At peak times eg 8am the traffic is backed up through Bonvilston to the 5 mile lane junction already, to add another 100 cars at least is irresponsible. There already large urbanisations in the Vale eg Barry and Cowbridge and houses should be built in these towns first where there are the facilities to support new residents. With new houses at Culverhouse cross, Wenvoe and Colwinston already being built it is difficult to understand why another 100 are needed in St Nicholas.
