The village's own housing needs survey indicated that only 14 new houses are needed at present. Over the timescale of the New Local Plan probably double that number would suffice, so the 100-150 proposed is far too many. However, the village suffers constant problems with gas and water leaks and drain blockages leading to floods of raw sewage, so until and unless the infrastructure, in particular the main sewer which often fails to cope with the present population, is uprated there should be no further increase in the size of Bishop's Tachbrook.
