Respondent: Essex County Council

Representation Summary:

Historic Environment Comment -
The site will completely surround Dunton Hills, with the potential to cause substantial harm to the heritage asset as per paragraph 133 of the NPPF (dependent on the contribution which its setting makes to its significance). It also heavily intrudes on the setting of Dunton Hall and the Church of St. Mary, which read as an historic church hall complex, the isolated setting of which makes an important contribution to their significance.
Constraint: Historic Church Hall complex on boundary will impact on setting. Likely to contain further extensive archaeological deposits
