Balsall Common town itself is not an attractive place, but to live in Balsall Common is attractive thanks to the surrounding countryside.
Building on all available land means that the British countryside is losing to yet more ugly houses. So many years down the line, what kind of quality of life is the next generation going to have?
There is more opportunity for (better) development in town centre. There is a need for more accommodation but building hundreds of individual houses sounds very inefficient. If you need to tackle the housing deficiency, build more flats in the town centre.
