Planning policy states that a site should be 5-10min walk to local shops and services. It is around a 40min walk to the nearest surgery and school - both of which are at full capacity already. The area is prone to flooding as per environment agency maps. Eric Pickles dept has removed compulsory purchase as an option - GT04 is private land and none of the owners wish to sell. There are no footpaths on the roads bordering GT04. Adverse impact on the historic area, in particular the views from Chesterton Windmill.
