The Plumsteads are seen as "service villages" within the Norwich Policy
Area and Joint Core Strategy. This is defined as suitable for small housing
developments (10 to 20 dwellings) subject to form and character
considerations.

Developing this land would also be on Grade 1 Agricultural Land, surely
brownfield sites should be used first?

Great Plumstead in particular has no infrastructure. There are currently
no schools, shops or doctors etc within the Village. The nearest school is
located within Little Plumstead which is at capacity, The nearest doctor
is Blofield, which is already nearing capacity. There is no shop within
the Parish at all, the closest shop is in neighbouring Parishes.

Poor road infrastructure in an area poorly serviced by public transport. There is only one bus which services the area which is not frequent.

It is presumed that the exit/entrance of this site would be located on Hare
Road. This is potentially dangerous as the road is not very wide and there have
already been accidents. Alternatively an exit/entrance onto
Middle Road would equally be unsuitable. This road has increased in
traffic since the opening of the new bridge and the closure of Low Road and
Smee Lane. Middle Road itself is not a wide carriageway and at parts
cannot support two vehicles passing each other.

Drainage/soakaways would need to be investigated on this site as Hare Road
is known for flooding in various parts.

Great Plumstead already absorbing more than Service Village allocation with over 30 new dwellings in progress.

This development is outside of the settlement boundary.

The foul drainage capacity in the area is already overloaded without taking account of the new developments coming.

Not a sustainable location.

Representation ID: 19590

Received: 18/12/2018

Respondent: Great & Little Plumstead Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The Plumsteads are seen as "service villages" within the Norwich Policy
Area and Joint Core Strategy. This is defined as suitable for small housing
developments (10 to 20 dwellings) subject to form and character
considerations.

Developing this land would also be on Grade 1 Agricultural Land, surely
brownfield sites should be used first?

Great Plumstead in particular has no infrastructure. There are currently
no schools, shops or doctors etc within the Village. The nearest school is
located within Little Plumstead which is at capacity, The nearest doctor
is Blofield, which is already nearing capacity. There is no shop within
the Parish at all, the closest shop is in neighbouring Parishes.

Poor road infrastructure in an area poorly serviced by public transport. There is only one bus which services the area which is not frequent.

It is presumed that the exit/entrance of this site would be located on Hare
Road. This is potentially dangerous as the road is not very wide and there have
already been accidents. Alternatively an exit/entrance onto
Middle Road would equally be unsuitable. This road has increased in
traffic since the opening of the new bridge and the closure of Low Road and
Smee Lane. Middle Road itself is not a wide carriageway and at parts
cannot support two vehicles passing each other.

Drainage/soakaways would need to be investigated on this site as Hare Road
is known for flooding in various parts.

Great Plumstead already absorbing more than Service Village allocation with over 30 new dwellings in progress.

This development is outside of the settlement boundary.

The foul drainage capacity in the area is already overloaded without taking account of the new developments coming.

Not a sustainable location.
