Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 59432

Received: 11/12/2021

Respondent: Mr Jeremy Pearson

Representation Summary:

Dear Sir or Madam.
I am writing in support of the Local Plan First Proposals which exclude any allocated development in the area of Little Linton.
The settlements of Linton and Little Linton have historically had distinct identities. New development on land in the environs would disrupt the historic open landscape setting, destroying the separation and ultimately damaging the individual character of each settlement. The land in this area is also an environmental resource, the value of which should continue to 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, in line with the overall spatial strategy, is appropriate and will ensure that Little Linton and Linton retain their identities.
