40 houses would effectively double the west end of Bressingham , this will have a significant impact on the village, particularly the traffic exiting to school road along the school frontage, the safety implication of this is clear. A small number of houses probably could be acceptable, would greatly reduce the flood risk and the number of cars. the car park idea on the opposite side of the road to the school is I believe unsafe for the children and unnecessary, safe drop off could be provided on the school side.
this site could be suitable for up to 10 houses making full use of the road frontage, this would leave the rest of the site to continue to re-wild which is proving to be of great value to an increasing range or wildlife, barn owls in particular as this type of hunting ground is rare locally. While up to 10 houses would still impact on traffic and drainage this could work if A, school road drainage is substantially improved and B, the footpath to the west of school road is moved further west to allow safe drop off for children [ piping the roadside ditch and putting the path on top will achieve this]
