Draft Local Plan

Respondent: Mountnessing Parish Council
Mountnessing village values its status within the greenbelt and it is important that this is maintained whilst accepting the need for housing growth in the locality. Any further convergence with Shenfield and Ingatestone should be avoided There is close proximity to Brentwood although for many services e.g. doctors, shops, and telephone exchange the village taps into the resources in Ingatestone. Historically the size of the village was not of sufficient critical mass to warrant certain provision. However, with proposals within the LDP and other plans currently in hand to build estates of houses within the Parish boundaries this status needs proper review.
