Respondent: Mr Richard Bailey

Representation Summary:

GNLP0531 should not be considered for circa 200 dwellings. Rockland is a small rural linear Norfolk village which will be overwhelmed by a development of this scale. The local character & environment will changed immeasurably by the scale proposed, adding 200 houses with and the extra cars will overload services, the access roads, street parking and generate a lot of extra noise pollution. All of this will be on the doorstep of a currently tranquil broadland Nature reserve. Please note I appreciate the village can benefit from development and a smaller plan for perhaps 25 houses may be suitable.
