- 020 and 021 (Industrial Estates in West Horndon) are already in the 5 year land supply, and are brownfield sites that could be developed in a positive manner for West Horndon village, although probably at a lower density than the 500 indicated in the 5 year land supply.
It should be noted however that development of these sites alone could increase the residential size of West Horndon village by c. 90% and as such, sufficient planning and infrastructure will need to ensure that the impact to existing residents is managed appropriately.
The present infrastructure (including roads, school and healthcare provision, public transport and superfast broadband) would be extremely inadequate in light of such expansion of the village.
