Prevention of Crime and
Disorder
The wooded environs of the proposed site will be harder to police than the
Bulverton Site.
Public Safety
Access via Salcombe Hill Road has no pedestrian footways, lethal at times
especially in the dark.
Prevention of Public
Nuisance
Access to the field will mainly be through residential areas, unlike the
Bulverton Site where this is not so.
Protection of Children
from Harm
I consider serving alcohol beyond midnight on a crowded campsite where
children are present is wrong.

are walked, deer run free and wildlife is in abundance.
Access to the proposed site the roads from A3052 and up Salcombe Hill
Road are totally unsuitable for the large number of people who will be using
the site. Salcombe Hill Road is a winding steep road. Cars accelerate
going up the hill and there is a potential for serious accidents also obviously
the descent is very steep which again could lead to accidents – car
accidents and pedestrian, as during folk week there will be (if the application
for the premises licence application 035154 is passed) a great deal of traffic
of one type of another.
