The proposed development size is not appropriate within the village boundary. Whilst there is housing that extends the village boundary along the Bungay to Earsham road, this is comprised of single dwellings only and no other housing extends into the river basin to the same extent as the proposed development.
The site should be a maximum of five houses.

The allocation of a 1.3ha site is unsound in this location as it pushes development behind the existing rural development pattern which is predominantly linear thus creating a development at odds with the local heritage and landscape setting. The size of the development in this location is too great and may hinder future expansion of the school.
This Policy could be made sound with an amendment to provide a linear infill development on a reduced size with aprx. 5 units.
