REJECT this proposal due to:
1. Flooding at most all sites due to high water table in the village,
2. Most all services (e.g. sewage, electricity) barely able to cope with existing population,
3. Virtually no 'social' infrastructure - e.g. no shops, no Post Office, only one pub, Village Hall, Junior/Primary school, and church,
4. Very poor road links and capacity,
5. Very poor public transport links - and nothing that would support commuting into Norwich,
6. Contrary to current Village Plan,
7. A number of TPOs in place around the village, several understood to be on/around these two proposed plots,
8. These two plots almost at the extremity of the village, therefore poorly-sited for what few amenities we have,
9. Nearby properties round the corner in Hall Road suffer from backing up of the sewage system, which is clearly insufficient for the existing level of properties let alone any new buildings in this corner of the village.
