Brooke is a small village with a wonderful sense of community, where neighbours look out for each other. I have seen Poringland turned into a dormitory village, with residents lacking respect for each other. Imposing this sort of scale development on Brooke risks losing the very qualities which make it so special as a rural community. Rather than letting it evolve over time. This site in particular is on a bend with poor visibility and is away from the main village centre which would make a linear sprawl into what is now countryside.
