The area sits inside the Norwich Southern Bypass Protection Zone.
The two developments either side of the Village Hall sit outside this zone and are screened by existing well-established hedgerows. They are almost invisible from Stocks Hill. The new settlement will be visible from the A47 and Stocks Hill without significant screening which will take substantial time to establish.
The site is on the hill, it is not clear if any screening could prevent the view from the A47 from being spoiled.
Also the density of the properties will be out of keeping with the existing low-density housing around it.

The proposed development contradicts the SNVC objective 3 to “protect the historic environment, including protected landscapes”. Sufficient consideration has not been given to South Norfolk’s own 2017 Bawburgh Conservation Area Character Appraisal. The location and scale of the proposed site will be clearly visible from the higher ground of the valley, spoiling the “longer views of the area on approach from the south side” and significantly impacting the preservation of the setting of this historic village and its “landscape of more dramatic contours”.
