It is inappropriate for any sites within the green belt to be developed without a full strategic assessment of the infrastructure (transport, education, health, environment etc), and without a preceding contractual agreement with landowners and developers to fund that infrastructure from the windfall profit on re-designation of land use. In particular, green belt sites around the villages should only be developed for the benefit of relatives of local families and for key workers, with appropriate restrictive covenants.

Existing brownfield sites should be targeted above all other developments to minimise impact on the environment and wildlife, once greenfield sites have been lost they cannot be reclaimed.

When is a village not a village? When it becomes a metropolis by stealth, both Ingrave and Herongate are small villages lacking the infrastructure to support large scale housing developement.

Building on greenbelt should be a last measure, all other options should be considered and preferred. Seriously, where will we grow 'local' produce, retain a sense of local history and separate from Greater London? People have invested in this area choosing to pay a premium to bring their families up in a more pleasant environment, now they might find themselves built back into London.

If local needs can be addressed by developing existing brownfield sites then that is of course preferable to the development of greenfield sites. However there must first be a clear need by the locals to allow development on either brownfield of greenfield sites.

I would object to the development of Greenfield sites although some infilling may be permissible. Brownfield site should be available for redevelopment providing the infrastructure is available. I note that some Brownfield sites are nevertheless classified as Greenbelt.

We object strongly to the proposal of site 143. This is a rural village that will loose all of its appeal to visitors if it becomes a town through excessive housing. Excessive demands on schools and community facilities will cause bad feeling amongst the residents. There is no justification for this site to be used.
Doddinghurst is a small rural village and should remain so. Most of the residence live in this location because of its surroundings. development of extra housing in the village will greatly effect its residents and village live. Currently the infrastructure only just supports the residents living here already. Extra housing and residents will overload and stretch the limited resources of the village too far. We live directly adjacent to proposed site 143. Site 143 is a small holding / farm. This is the main reason we purchased our house so that we could experience the rural charm of a village. We have cockerels crowing and sheep bleating which is the very essence of the appeal to move here. The loss of this land will have a dramatic effect on all those around. Extra traffic will have to use Peartree Lane and Lime Grove. These are very small and restricted roads that are not suitable for any more traffic than they carry now. The location means we have no overlooking or overcrowding issues. Our enjoyment of the property will, be totally ruined if housing is allowed to be built in this location. Doddinghurst is a rural village and should remain so.

Piecemeal development will drastically alter the greenbelt, with each development likely to be always pushing to the max and with no overarching plan, the local character will be devastated.

I would support the potential use of brownfield sites where these are small developments. No large scale developments should be considered surrounding villages.

It is suggested that greenfield sites on the edge of villages should be released as small extensions to the settlements. These are better located to take advantage of existing utilities and services and would therefore be more sustainable. Brownfield sites in the Greenbelt may often be more isolated and less sustainable in the long term. These sites often provide sites for businesses which are less reliant on a sustainable location. The loss from economic use would have an adverse impact on the rural economy and jobs. Unless they are adjacent to a larger village with facilities and services, such sites should not be allocated for housing.

My preference would be for the brownfield sites although I acknowledge they are few and far between. The villages do not have the school space to cope with an influx of children. The local roads cannot cope with the construction vehicles which would need access for some considerable time.The villages should grow but not significantly. Most could cope with a small number of extra properties rather than a significant increase.

Only brownfield sites should be developed. Otherwise, there is a risk of ghastly urban sprawl, and for village communities to lose their definition (many villages are already almost sprawled together, such as Mountnessing-Ingatestone and Ingrave-Herongate).

To provide for local needs in villages I believe that brownfield sites should be developed in keeping with the local architecture and style. It is important to ensure that these houses are made available for local people as a priority. Local people should be consulted fully on these developments.

It is always best to develop brownfield sites, but it is necessary to look at the origin of the site. Some brownfield is former greenbelt, but had its status reduced by becoming a golf course, rather than true brownfield like a former building. They should not be developed but retained as greenbelt, as they are still part of the boundary which prevents urban sprawl. Landowners should not be allowed to profit from selling greenbelt, as it is there to protect residents from sprawl not line their pockets.

As both are within green belt land it would be preferable to build sympathetically on released green belt land. There are unknown consequences on building on these brownfield sites - polluted land, loss of those sites, etc.

In Pilgrims Hatch there is already a considerable amount of housing development within a small area.The proposed sites are 053a/053b/156/159 /Gt009. Hatch Road is the main cut through road between Brentwood & M25 & Ongar and the M11 from the villages and is a very busy, poorly maintained road. To build more houses on these proposed sites (500 has been suggested) would mean a considerable increase in traffic, at least another 500 cars and the road could not sustain it. The local shops would be lost & the local primary school could not cope with the additional pupils.
