The following Chailey Community Website makes interesting reading. 

Tony Cook (ESCC Chief Planning Officer) admitted:

• The consultants had not actually visited the proposed site in Newick, much less contacted the landowner, who was particularly knowledgable about the complex mix of soils conditions on site
• Each site would give rise to eighty movements each day by the very largest, six axle, articulated lorries
• Neither the consultants nor ESCC planners had given serious consideration, when drawing up the short list, to visual impacts on nearby communities
