Further to our earlier news item, Braintree District Council’s Local Plan consultation closes on 17th August.

You can submit your comments on line here.

The plan includes a proposal to build a New Town to the north of Felsted. The precise area is to be set, but the southern edge of the search area consumes Gransmore Green, within our Parish.

The impact on the Parish of Felsted from this development would be immense.

The consultation document is difficult to navigate and to understand exactly where the most important questions are.

However, SERCLE, the Stebbing based campaign group, has issued guidance notes which you might find helpful.

Please do have your say, whether you are for or against this new town development.
