Plans for a new holiday park in an East Coast hamlet next to a listed windmill have run into opposition from local villagers.
However it has caused concern in the village, with fears that it will set a precedent - as happened at nearby Fitling, where a large number of holiday units have been developed, despite objections from residents.
Locals have pointed out that the entrance is near a bend on the busy B1242, which on some days can be"like a racetrack" with motorbikes heading to Withernsea.One objector states on the online planning portal:"The last thing needed is large numbers of cars and caravans entering and leaving the site on such a dangerous part of the road."
The council’s conservation officer Stephen Walker said in his report that the mill, which can be seen by passing motorists, stands in isolation in an open field, and the holiday park would"result in a high degree of harm to the setting of the mill".who commented on the online planning portal said they had been shocked when the proposed site – a ridge and furrow field – was ploughed.
