I'd be interested to learn why adding a few feet to the front of a house is normally rejected for being "beyond the building line" but an entire housing estate at the back is fine. Earlier proposal GNLP0531 will increase the village size by how much? 50%? Even more development will exacerbate the problems of limited facilities and infrastructure - narrow roads & pavements in particular. New settlements away from existing villages might be a better option, or better still development of derelict "brown field" sites - less commuting, less congestion and less pollution. Just a thought....
