Respondent: Mr John Hill

Representation Summary:

This is the best site to develop for housing in Aylsham, having the least impact on the environment and with the best potential road access. There should be access links to the Buxton Road area (at the very least footpath / cycleway / emgergency links) and there would need to be a substantial reservation for landscaping and noise attenuation measures along the A140 frontage. However, it is questionable if the whole of this site would be required to meet genuine local housing demand in the plan period rather than demand from the wider city-region and beyond, given local constraints.
