Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 57904

Received: 12/12/2021

Respondent: Dr Stephen Foulds

Representation Summary:

I support the proposals which exclude any development in the area of Little Linton.

The settlements of Linton and Little Linton have historically had distinct identities. New development in the area would disrupt the historic open landscape, destroying the separation and damaging the individual character of each settlement. Land in this area is a valuable environmental resource, which should be protected.

I support the retention of the land between Little Linton and Linton within the designated countryside.

The direction of future development to other more sustainable locations is appropriate and will ensure that Little Linton and Linton retain their identity.
