Core Strategy Issues & Options

Representation ID: 18592

Received: 30/01/2007

Respondent: Beckley Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Beckley Parish Councillors fully support the Rother District Local Plan. Beckley contains 5 separate delineated development areas along Main Street and Hobbs Lane where development is permitted subject to the Local Plan. Parish Councillors would like to see the retention of the development boundaries as they stand. Any attempt to develop those areas of countryside between the 5 settlement boundaries along Main Street should be strongly resisted. The village will come under increasing pressure from developers. Future developments are likely to occur as infilling, as in the recent consent in the garden of the Poplars.
