The selection of West horndon, the use of the green belt and the intention to build 1500 houses will seriously impact the environment, increase the risk of flooding as the open fields in the green belt act as drainage to Thorndon Park and the village. The village is built in a flood plain and frequently floods. It will change the characteristics of the village and will have an impact on the countryside and destroy the setting of the village.
