RSS Developmental Potential: Recognising that Robertsbridge can be classed as a service centre should not entail a green light for large developments.

The majority of residents do not wish to see a green field site used for development unless it is an exception site. It should not be considered as given that Grove Farm should be developed just because it is in the Local Plan. The LDF is a different plan with a different process allowing residents to shape the document.
The preference for Robertsbridge would be to achieve the housing target by infilling, use of the Mill Site and the rear of Culverwells. Should the Link Road be delayed further than anticipated, the villages should not then bear the burden of increased development. Solutions to development in Bexhill should be found, ideally now as a back up position. The rural areas have already taken more development than Bexhill, which after all is the predominant service centre.
