The most obvious one is the change in character of the upper edge of the village from its quiet undisturbed fields to a residential area much like a caravan site. This will change the view for anyone entering the village from this direction and can have a negative effect on the tourism in the area.
It will impact on the cemetery. It is an important place of grieving as well as tranquillity. The site will have both a visual and noise impact which will destroy the peace of the cemetery. The proposed shielding from the travellers site is effectively just temporary fencing with a green covering over it.

In other areas the properties close by have been know to loose half their value and may become unsellable. It is likely to impact on most houses in the village and any house which are being sold, will have this issues being brought up in any searches.
