14 VISION FOR ICKFORD : ICKFORD NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN CONSULTATION REPORT

84 Land off Turnfields to complete building within centre of village. The
two other proposals encroach on green areas around the village.
85 North of Turnfields’ allotments – least effect on residents.
86 End of Turnfields.
87 Turnfields is acceptable. The other two sites are opportunistic and
nothing more than greed on the part of the land owners. They do not
care if the village is overwhelmed.
88 At the end of Turnfields. Pound Ground Field.
89 Land off Turnfields, other suggested sites are rich in wildlife.
90 Turnfields proposal.
91 North of the village, as indicated on the map. The South floods easily.
92 Incorporated into existing housing estates without breaking into the
countryside and with easy access to the shop and school so that
vehicles are not used to get there.
93 Turnfields – it is spare land which does not overlook anyone.
94 The proposal for Turnfields/Golders Close makes sense. It surrounds
the playing area for children to be safe and has less impact on the
village compared to new developments.
95 The application for planning on the site off Turnfields looks to be the
best option in terms of location (away from main road, close to play
area for children etc.) and size.
96 Land East of 42 Worminghall Road.
97 Turnfields. Best place for traffic.
98 Land off Turnfields. Land East of 42 Worminghall Road.
99 Within the present limits of the existing housing, infilling where
possible. The useful aerial view of the village provided by Cala Homes
shows that the most obvious site and the one least likely to impact on
present residents is that at the end of Turnfields. This development
would provide an acceptable number of 30 or so new homes which
the existing village services could accommodate within the 15 year
time frame.
100 Land off Turnfields. This would have the least impact on the character
of the village.
101 Spread out, not an estate.
102 In the centre so as not to extend the village boundaries too much and in a
site that can cope with the extra demands on utilities – presumably in the
vicinity of Turnfields.
103 Land off Turnfields as the road and site allow the development to
blend in with existing housing.
104 End of Turnfields, no flooding.
105 I find it difficult to state with certainty, but I do see that the areas
already highlighted, like North End of Turnfields, are prime targets
for developers.
106 There is only one suitable site – the land off Turnfields.
107 The proposed site for the development using the land east of
42 Worminghall Road is a sensible option. It is adjacent to the
main body of the village and does not cause the village to ‘creep’
along Worminghall Road.
108 Land off Turnfields as a last resort; but ideally none in this village.
