Full text:

I moved to this village to get away from the hurly burly where there were inadequate road and facilities.
This villages roads are not capable of taking the amount of traffic this would generate, there is no shop, no surgery or post office, the busses run infrequently and cant be relied on for commuting meaning that cars would be a necessity probably 2 to 4 for each household. Parking would be practically impossible, you only have to look at the recent developments in costessey such as queens hills to see that 55 houses would not have enough parking on such a small site.
We already suffer from flooding at the bottom of Hall Drive where further development would only worsen this, again I moved from a house that now regularly has garden flooding and the new properties built against my better judgement flood as I forecast and i don't want to be in that situation again.
