South Norfolk Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan (Reg. 18 Draft)

Representation ID: 8

Received: 07/06/2021

Respondent: Dr G M Courtier

Representation Summary:

The blue hatched area (not labelled SN0526, formerly GNLP0526?) is outside the Roydon development boundary and unsuitable for residential housing. It encroaches into the Waveney Valley with difficult highway access, infrastructure loading, nugatory environmental effects on Roydon Fen, destroying amenity assets for Roydon Village and location. The site has received many disapproving comments from the Roydon Community during DDNP surveys, and was also rejected from earlier GNLP consultations, involving public bodies representing both Suffolk and Norfolk. Any need to allocate housing development beyond 1-2 per year in Roydon overe the next 15 years needs serious re-appraisal.
