The site is well located, 330m from school and 350m to the pub; village hall is directly opposite. There are good footways and main road is 20mph . Owners of site wish to include provision for a village shop as part of scheme.
Land is relatively level, and is an ‘infill’ parcel.
There are limited mature hedges/trees; A47 traffic is not notably known. Site not highly visible in landscape - notable views towards Norwich
Highways proposals, for access and footway connections have been considered further. Flood risk EA preliminary assessment undertaken to demonstrate no issue.
Landscape assessment concludes that whilst site could detract from views towards bypass, there are positive measures e.g. central access road, with wide verges would create positive vista.

Land is ready and available to be progressed.
