POLICY R25: LAND NORTH OF WOOLLARD WAY

Representation ID: 24587

Received: 11/06/2019

Respondent: Blackmore Village Heritage Association

Legally compliant? Not specified

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

There are more suitable and or sustainable locations, eg urban extensions of Brentwood (eg Honeypot Lane), and the locations in Blackmore so not promote sustainable development.

Change suggested by respondent:

The plan overall is not the issue- I am challenging policies R25 and R26/Blackmore's inclusion in the LDP solely. Please refer to the attached village survey of July 2018, which is hereby re-submitted. Blackmore Village Heritage Association will have an updated "Neighbourhood Plan" available.

Policy NE13

Section 09
Policy R25, 9.197-9.200
Policy R26, 9.201-204


The plan is deficient in respect of Blackmore village and unsound on all 4 tests in particular:

1. There is no clear 'strategy ' for the villages including Blackmore, in the north of the borough.
2. BBC has not consulted adequately with Epping Forest District Council. Over houses being constructed and/or planned close to Blackmore village.
3. The principle of residential development off of Redrose Lane is wrong, Blackmore is an isolated village with modest services and infrastructure (The school is full, the doctors surgery is Doddinghurst is already over subscribed inadequate bus service, narrow lanes and already dangerous parking, sewerage system is overloaded already etc).
4. There are more suitable and or sustainable locations, eg urban extensions of Brentwood (eg Honeypot Lane), and the locations in Blackmore so not promote sustainable development.
5. BBC has not demonstrated that there are other brownfield sites that are available and which should take priority over the Greenfield/Green Belt land off of Redrose Lane.
6. BBC has failed to demonstrate that the required housing could not be met by increasing housing density on other (allocated) sites.
7. There has been no 'housing needs survey' to demonstrate why Blackmore village is included in the LDP.
8. The access off/from Redrose Lane is entirely unsuitable for this volume of traffic movements.
9. The entire village is prone to severe flooding, and sites R25 and R26 are both liable to flood. Building on this land will only increase the flood risk elsewhere in the village.
10. Both fields (R25 and R26) are teeming with wildlife - hundreds of birds nest in the hedgerows within and around the fields. We have photographic evidence (stills and videos) of certain protected species (bats, Barn Owls, Great Crested Newts).

Proposed modifications

The plan overall is not the issue- I am challenging policies R25 and R26/Blckmore's inclusion in the LDP solely.
Please refer to the attached village survey of July 2018, which is herby re-submitted.
Blackmore Village Heritage Association will have an updated "Neighbourhood Plan" available.

Why attend Examination in person?
As Chairman of he "Blackmore Village Heritage Association", I wish to present our own vision for our village based on what Blackmore actually needs.

Policy R26, 9.201-204


The plan is deficient in respect of Blackmore village and unsound on all 4 tests in particular:

1. There is no clear 'strategy ' for the villages including Blackmore, in the north of the borough.
2. BBC has not consulted adequately with Epping Forest District Council. Over houses being constructed and/or planned close to Blackmore village.
3. The principle of residential development off of Redrose Lane is wrong, Blackmore is an isolated village with modest services and infrastructure (The school is full, the doctors surgery is Doddinghurst is already over subscribed inadequate bus service, narrow lanes and already dangerous parking, sewerage system is overloaded already etc).
4. There are more suitable and or sustainable locations, eg urban extensions of Brentwood (eg Honeypot Lane), and the locations in Blackmore so not promote sustainable development.
5. BBC has not demonstrated that there are other brownfield sites that are available and which should take priority over the Greenfield/Green Belt land off of Redrose Lane.
6. BBC has failed to demonstrate that the required housing could not be met by increasing housing density on other (allocated) sites.
7. There has been no 'housing needs survey' to demonstrate why Blackmore village is included in the LDP.
8. The access off/from Redrose Lane is entirely unsuitable for this volume of traffic movements.
9. The entire village is prone to severe flooding, and sites R25 and R26 are both liable to flood. Building on this land will only increase the flood risk elsewhere in the village.
10. Both fields (R25 and R26) are teeming with wildlife - hundreds of birds nest in the hedgerows within and around the fields. We have photographic evidence (stills and videos) of certain protected species (bats, Barn Owls, Great Crested Newts).

Proposed modifications

The plan overall is not the issue- I am challenging policies R25 and R26/Blckmore's inclusion in the LDP solely.
