New, Revised and Small Sites

Representation ID: 18544

Received: 11/12/2018

Respondent: Edward Jinks

Representation Summary:

Totally out of keeping with the character and scale of the village, most of which is a Conservation area.
Would encroach into open countryside and extend the village well beyond the traditional boundary, which should be respected.
Growth should be limited to a modest number of new dwellings over the period to 2036.
Proposed new school is not required. There is a very good and popular existing school with capacity for another 40-50 children.
The proposal would adversely impact nearby ancient woodland and County Wildlife Site (Brooke Wood)
Winding country lane is unsuitable for access into a residential development
