Flooding has always been a major issue for Blackmore and the new development where we live has already taken extensive open field areas and covered them in material that does not absorb rain water. To remove even large fields for the proposed developments would be very bad for those new properties and also the rest of the village. Blackmore is recognised as a Critical Drainage Area in the plan, but the Inspectors have removed the comment that the development may impact surface water flooding, and there is no evidence to support this change of direction. There is also no mention at all about Fluvial Flooding which has been completely ignored. With more extreme weather predicted this situation will only worsen.
