4.2 KEY STRUCTURING ELEMENTS (FIXES)
AMOUNT DENSITY AND HEIGHTS
SPD is also non-specific enough about the limits of housing numbers Housing available on the Waterbeach development would be attractive to new employees at the distant employment sites resulting in increased travel.

A large amount of high-rise buildings will be necessary to facilitate the delivery of 6500 homes. This would be unacceptable as it is out of character for the area totally at odds with nearby settlements.

The height of the lakeside buildings (up to six storeys with some up to eight/ 30m) is not in
keeping with the surrounding area, the conservation area and vernacular of Waterbeach village, the listed buildings of Landbeach or the historic buildings of Denny Abbey.
