His comments here:

'1. Bushfield Camp is part of the critical downland rim that surrounds Winchester and forms the historic setting of the city. Despite my comments during consultation, not a single plan (not even the heights parameter plan) shows the contours of the site and its relationship to the wider landscape. The damage to the South Downs, St Cross and Winchester itself would be considerable.

2. When so much of the centre of Winchester is in need of redevelopment and revitalisation, I cannot see how out-of-town employment in open countryside helps the future of the city. This kind of development goes against all the principles of responsible and sustainable urban growth.

3. The proposed layout is arbitrary and clumsy. It does not respond to the flow of the land or the wider setting.'
