Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations
Representation ID: 22109
Received: 16/03/2020
Respondent: Savills
It is considered that the land adjoining land west of Attleborough (GNLP0395) is sustainable and deliverable as defined by the NPPF, and a suitable location for residential development. The site, within the ownership of the Diocese of Norwich, represents an attractive option for housing growth within the District.
Our client has concerns regarding the draft allocation GNLP0503 on grounds of highway infrastructure and delivery, and would therefore suggest that ‘GNLP0395’ land west of Attleborough Road represents a more
realistic and attractive option for development in Hingham over the plan period, whether it comes forward in full or in part.
Lastly, whilst our client supports the GNLP growth strategy, our client believes there would be significant benefits in bringing forward larger allocations in the town of Hingham.
