Respondent: Dr G M Courtier

Representation Summary:

Lying in the Waveney valley, and an essential natural buffer between the mature village of Roydon and the SSSI wildlife site of Roydon Fen this area is most unsuitable for modern affordable housing development on any scale. A density of 24 properties per/ha for this site is a thoughtless proposal guaranteed to despoil environmental amenity for nature, local residents and visitors. The Waveney valley is a countryside asset for Norfolk and Suffolk.
