Respondent: Mrs Joyce Patmore

Representation Summary:

I object to the building of so many new houses in West Horndon and also object most strongly to having a gypsy site here. We do not have the amenities for all these people to live here. The school is full and so is the Doctors list. The trains are overflowing with passengers.
To move the industrial site, could be achieved, but we cannot cope with more houses and more people living in the village without more amenities.

I have lived in West Horndon since 1957. I have raised my four children here. I am a widow of 5 years, and will be aged 86 on Friday 4th October. I object to the building of so many new houses in West Horndon and also object most strongly to having a gypsy site here. We do not have the amenities for all these people to live here. The school is full and so is the Doctors list. The trains are overflowing with passengers. You are trying to make a village into a small town.
To move the industrial site, could be achieved, but we cannot cope with more houses and more people living in the village without more amenities. When I die my daughter's dearest wish is to live in this house and hopes it will be the same as it is as present - unspoilt.

I object most strongly to the plans to build 15,000 houses and a gypsy site in West Horndon.
