The Greenbelt must be protected
Villages do not have the infrastructure to support development, nor want it.
Care should be taken to make every possible use of sites for development other than the Greenbelt.
The whole 'feel' of the Brentwood area is one which separates urban sprawl from the greenspaces and this must be protected. The whole point of people living in villages is that they tend to choose to do so simply to be surrounded by some green space and open countryside. The young must be catered but also those us who are of retirement age and don't want to live in flats, or urban surroundings, who want to remain in greenspaces.
