Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

Representation ID: 61084

Received: 19/01/2014

Respondent: Mrs Jacqueline Crampton

Representation Summary:

Village envelopes are a good idea but those proposed have been set too tight and should reflect the identity of the village. Envelope should include sites which may come forward later on, I do not agree with the need to prevent excessive infilling - I think this is JUST what is required (subject to planning).
Villages have always been a mix of little and large, manors and cottages, there should be enough space within the envelope to have flexibility going forward.
