I object to the large housing development being considered in this location - it is very close to Roydon Fen - this is a rare wetland habitat; wet fen and carr woodlands cover only 0.7% of England. Building so close could cause damage to this precious site. Water run off from the built on area could cause problems. The increased volume of people using such a sensitive site would also cause damage to the delicate and rare eco system.
