FW Properties have submitted the attached Site Assessment for Land off Chapel Street as we believe the VCHAP proposals for the village are unsound without the inclusion of this land. Not only have the Parish Council expressed delivery concerns to the draft VC BAR1 but also there have been comparatively few homes built in the village during the last 20 years. If the land off Chapel Street and VC BAR1 are both developed for housing there would be an uplift of 35 new homes (excluding the 10 houses removed from the current local plan) which can be accommodated within Barford.
The plan should include this land off Chapel Street for the development of 25 new homes and a new village hall together with a new playing field on the adjacent land to the North.
