Housing - Too many developments
I could not believe what I was hearing when we were told by our local district councillor that planners can’t take into account the effect seven or eight developments will have on our village.
As one resident pointed out, if all these 900 or so homes are built, how will the local schools and NHS services cope. And we also heard that the drainage system is already struggling.

Come on planners, adopt some sense and realise what effect all these homes will have. 950 homes could equate to 3,000 new residents, more than 1,000 children.
Never mind a classroom, what’s needed is a new school.
