Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57579

Received: 10/12/2021

Respondent: Mr Adrian Izzarf

Representation Summary:

Ref 40536
Land to the rear of 24 Brookhampton Street Ickleton CB10 1SP
This land is totally unsuitable for development and should not be given “amber development status” as it would destroy the very rural character of this part of the village which has no street lighting and backs on to water meadows and the Welcome Trusts Wetlands Nature Reserve.
In addition Brookhampton street is very narrow at this point and could not support a major new junction and the increased vehicle movements and parking associated with the proposed 20 houses. It’s also next to a flood plane.
