Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan - Alternative Sites & Focused Changes (Reg. 18)

Representation ID: 3349

Received: 22/01/2024

Respondent: Mr John Wyndham

Representation Summary:

I object to the new boundary as the revised allocation of 35 dwellings is still far too high (80% too high). The boundary increase is taking away even more grade 3 agricultural land.

The proposed increase of land which will be built will change the character of the old village even more. The open country space the village of Bawburgh is known for will be lost for ever.

"Mr Gove will allow councils to slash the number of planned homes if development would significantly change the character of an area, according to The Times."
