We propose the allocation of a further site in the Ditchingham and Broome cluster. The site has the reference SN0346 in the 2021 Site Assessment Forms.
The site is well related to the built-up area of Broome. Housing was recently developed on a similar site nearby and there are no constraints to development which
cannot be addressed.
The development of the site will allow a range of small sites to come forward in the Local Plan. This will meet the requirements of national planning policy to deliver a
range of sizes of development sites. Allocating small sites will support local builders by providing them with certainty over the development potential of the land.
The site has existing homes, a road, and a footway immediately to the south. A good quality vehicular access can be created. New homes would reflect the pattern of development in the locality. The existing trees on the site would be retained in order to create a well landscaped development.
In conclusion the allocation of the site will mean that the Plan accords with national policy and is positively prepared.
