East Carleton & Ketteringham parish council has reviewed the additional sites and has the following comments to make:
East Carleton is designated as a rural village with no amenities and if additional amenities were to be provided for example a shop it would prove unsustainable. There is a proposal for a village green to be provided however the parish council has a 54-acre country park within easy walking distance of all of theproposed sites.
Any access to schools, shops medical facilities would all require the use of a car, as there is no access to any public transport. The nearest failities are in either Hethersett or Mulbarton and these are already under great strain.

GNLP2165 - Wymondham Road, East Carleton
This road is entirely unsuitable for use to access additional dwellings and a business park and offices as suggested. There is no demand for such facilities that would outweigh the negative impact on a small country lane and the parish council is opposed to this site being included in the local plan.

GNP2167 - Hethersett Road
This piece of land is beyond the existing development of the village and the road that serves the village is unsuitable for additional housing being built in this location, the parish council is opposed to this site being included in the local plan.

GNLP2152 - Hethersett Road
This piece of land would be backfill development and would have a negative impact on existing residents and the historic church. The same objection applies to this site as it does to GNLP2167 that the roads are unsuitable to support additional housing or business.
