1) The water table is very high and the main open ditch has to drain land to the north, south and west of Wymondham Road, including several large fields west of the old railway line.
2) The firm that installed mains sewage into the village drove straight through several drainage pipes in Wymondham Road and never fixed the problems it caused, this includes the dam it has created with water flowing south under Wymondham Road at The Loke.
3) Any piping of the ditch will make matters worse, housing approval must require the developer fix drainage issues along Wymondham Road.

The village is full already. Roads are narrow. No facilities other than a pub. School is full. No footpaths.
Wymondham road is narrow. After you go over the old bridge it is single track all the way to Silfield. I understand that water flooding is a possible problem. Sewerage that was put in this village is at maximum usage already.
If Hethel Road is too narrow for development then so is Wymonham Road which is much narrower.

I strongly believe that the current Settlement Limit in Wreningham is still appropriate for the village and do not want to see it enlarged.
Since 2015 more than 30 houses have been built in the village (three times the target set in the GNLP for Wreningham) within this limit and more sites still exist to extend this if needed.
I believe that that with some small scale infill developments already being planned within the existing settlement limit, Wreningham will have already provided its fair share of development to meet housing targets.

The settlement limit should not be enlarged.
Wreningham has had 25 new houses in the last 6 years exceeding the previous limit.
The road capacity is a limiting factor and as the primary school is full, driving children to Hapton is hardly viable.
52 houses on a greenfield site is excessive both in terms of number and density.

I see no reason to have the Settlement Limit in Wreningham enlarged:
• In the current existing SNLP, adopted in 2015 and covering up to 2026, ten houses were allocated to Wreningham. Since 2015 around 25 houses have been built.
• Roads into Wreningham have significant highways constraints - they are not conducive to the additional traffic 25 homes would introduce.
• Wreningham has already provided its fair share of development to meet housing targets.
• The development (SN2183) on a greenfield site is outside the settlement boundary, out of context/scale for a village of this size.

I think the historic ribbon development an unfortunate inheritence. A village designed from scratch would not be this way. We should move to a more clustered development with maximum use of open spaces.

I do not agree to a change in the settlement limit, because I see no reason to allow anything more than small infill development in the village of Wreningham. The road system of the village is narrow, in many places allowing the passage of only one vehicle, which, even with the existing traffic load, necessitates reversing (sometimes around a blind bend) or driving onto verges or into hedgerows. With the increase in traffic generated by delivery vehicles as more people use online shopping, the problems are worsening, even without further housing.

It is not possible for Wreningham to cope with that many new builds, the school is full now with a waiting list, we have no bus service no local shop. The small narrow road system would not take the traffic, and we have reached capacity on the sewage system installed by Anglia Water .

25 additional homes built in Wreningham since 2015
Traffic generated by 25 additional homes directed into the centre of the village where the school is located, through single-track roads with blind corners, would create significant risk of collision and injury, especially to pedestrians and cyclists using the roads.
There are 2 brownfield sites at the centre of the village with applications for a total of 8 additional homes which are more appropriate sites for development.
The Primary School is already at capacity with little scope for expansion and already operating with 2 mobiles.
Local GPs struggling to meet existing demand.

We see no reason to have the Settlement Limit enlarged.
Ten houses were allocated in current Local Plan to Wreningham. Since 2015 c.25 houses have been built, meaning Wreningham is already at almost double the previous set limit.
All four roads into Wreningham have considerable highway constraints. Not conducive to additional traffic 25 homes would introduce.
Suggest that with small scale infill development, Wreningham will provide development to meet housing targets. Two new windfall sites are shortly scheduled to be delivered.
52 houses on greenfield site outside settlement boundary is completely out of context and scale for the village. Primary school is already at capacity.
