The building of 50-60 houses behind the existing strip of houses is totally inappropriate. Stoke has already been the subject of several new estates, and has more than 'done its bit' providing Norfolk with new housing. The government's housing targets are based on 2014 (out of date) figures according to Campaign for Rural England. Green belt must be respected and Councils have a duty not to allow one village to blend into another. Biodiversity and Geodiversity have to be nurtured, not bulldozed! Existing habitats (for humans too) must be respected. Traffic levels and pressure on all services would become excessive.
