Respondent: Shelfanger Parish Council

The access to this Shelfanger, shortlisted site would be directly onto the B1077 an already dangerous thoroughfare.
Housing development would seriously increase the amount of run-off water from the site, limiting the area where surface water can naturally be absorbed.
The proposed site is at the centre of the village which has historically been seriously flooded, twice in the last 5 years, There is already an unresolved issue of surface water flowing into the crossroads from the small housing development to the west of the B1077 at that point during times of heavy rain. No school, no pub.

Please see attached file for full response.
Site: SN0399B Land to the east of Winfarthing Road
Owner of site, supports proposed amendment of Shelfanger settlement limit to include part of their land.
The assessment is generally favourable in relation to site and confirms its general suitability for inclusion with amended settlement boundary.
The assessment raises concerns about scale of development proposed. Therefore suggested that site may be more suitable for fewer dwellings, and that 6-8 homes would allow for maximising development potential of the land, whilst responding to local character. The exact number of dwellings would be informed by site investigations set out in the table attached.
