1. This site is in a Conservation Area whose dwellings characteristics - small detached and semi-detached cottages - would be entirely changed by this development.
2. With slopng banks of varying but significant steepness on three sides, this site may be of less "developable" size than that stated.
3. A signifiant number of mature trees within this site would have to be felled to achieve the number of dwellings proposed.
4. There is no evidence of any dwelling that existed here. There was (and there is a photo of) a small estate carpenter's shop at the west end of the clearing - demolished in the late 1950s.
5. The access road (Bussey Bridge) is very narrow single-track with no passing places. It is subject, at all seasons, to signifcant agricultural traffic as well as cars, vans and lorries. There is a point, only a hundred yards east of this site, where Bungay Lane enters Bussey Bridge at a particularly challenging and blind junction used as a "rat-run" by traffic passing between the A146 and Ditchingham/Bungay. The addition of 5 to 10 cars from the proposed development would be a significant additional hazard.
6. There is no mains drainage in this srea.
7. The awesomely-poor broadband speeds of this intensely-rural locale are unliley ever to improve to a standard that would be acceptabe to people who might be the target market for this development.
