GNLP0065

I have lived in Hainford since 1991 and it originally had a post office and shop. These closed and the community of the village suffered. I believe new development in the village would add to the life of the village and would hopefully improve amenities.

I support more houses in Hainford!

I object to any development in Hainford on the grounds that the proposal is outside the settlement boundary in conflict with the Hainford village status of "other village" and in conflict with the Parish plan. I strongly object to any large scale development of the village that would require a change of status from " other village" to any other status. Hainford is a village not a suburb of a town or city. Our village cannot sustain the large scale proposals connected to this plan. Please preserve our village status and leave the residents alone in peace

This site is rather isolated from the remainder of Hainford with no paved walking route into the rest of the village.

The site actually has more in common with Frettenham and it is likely that any residents would be more likely to use the amenities of this parish which is classified as an "other village".

I am concerned about any potential access point putting further pressure on Buxton Road. The junction from Frettenham Road suffers from visibility issues.

The site does not relate to and is not contiguous to the existing settlement of Hainford.
The site has significant flooding issues and ditches abutting the site are overflowing.It is current planning direct development towards areas with the lowest probability of flooding.
There would be a reliance upon narrow rural roads to access the site. The narrow rural roads in this location are inadequate for the increased volume of traffic the site would generate and in many locations it is impossible for two vehicles to pass safely.
It is an unsuitable location due to the rural landscape setting.
It is an unsuitable location due to the close proximity to the junction with the Buxton Rd.
The site lies outside the development boundary.
wider development in this location would be unsustainable due to lack of infrastructure services,power supplies and general facilities to support this level of development.
The site is not connected to footway links and there would be a reliance upon the private motor vehicle which is contrary to sustainability and policies.

I am objecting to all the site proposals on the grounds that:-
The village has a very high water table and most areas are subject to surface water flooding which at times infiltrate the foul sewer network causing problems within properties. The very narrow rural roads with no pavements are unsuitable for increased traffic.We have limited power supply,sporadic bus services and no local facilities.
All the services and infrastructure would be overloaded by more development;only small scale housingwithin the development boundary would be suitable.

REJECT this proposal due to:
1. Flooding at all of the sites, mainly due to high water table in the village,
2. Most all services (e.g. sewage, electricity) barely able to cope with existing population,
3. Virtually no 'social' infrastructure - e.g. no shops, no Post Office, only one pub, Village Hall, Junior/Primary school, and church,
4. Very poor road links and capacity,
5. Very poor public transport links - and nothing that would support commuting into Norwich,
6. Contrary to current Village Plan,
7. On extreme fringe of village - few properties and no village facilities in the vicinity.

Hainford has insufficient services to support further build up. Public transport is poor, and electric supply/sewage limited. There are no shops, only one public house. This site would be disperate from the village centre. This is outside of the development boundary.

This area is often flooded by small river that flows across it. It is outside the settlement area and the main village. The access road is very narrow and we have witnessed several accidents with vehicles exiting onto buxton road.

There is a problem with speeding on this stretch of buxton road and a speed reactive sign has been installed. 70mph was recorded Saturday pm.

This area is characterised by larger detached properties many period, interesting architecturally and several hundred years old. Unlike the centre of the village it is unsuitable for housing estates and retains a countryside feel.

Agree with parishioners comments. We have lived here for 20 years for a good reason... being quiet & rural. If we wanted to be in a built up area with services we would live in a town. The infrastructure, particularly roads do not support large scale developments although I am not adverse to smaller building WHERE A NEED IS RECOGNISED BY THE PARISH COUNCIL for affordable housing (to allow younger villagers who wish to remain in Hainford to purchase a property) and good size 4/5 bedroom housing to retain the character of this village i.e. recent development behind The Chequers.
