People keep trying for planning permission to build 50 houses on the field as you look at the church from the main road. Undoubtedly, we are against this as our village does not have the infrastructure to support them and our village school is very small. We have no doctors and only 1 small village shop/post office. It would be a shame to spoil such a lovely village as the one I live in. Am I being a NIMBY!!! I suppose I am but the village means a lot to me.
How many times do we have this problem in our villages! We are supposed to be having 600 new houses built around the edges of ours over the next fourteen years doubling the size of our village! Schools full, doctors full, no parking etc etc! That us not even taking into account the loss of good agricultural land! They aren't even affordable houses, three & four bedroom detached!! I disparity!
