LAND AT THE END OF MUNDESLEY ROAD, NORTH WALSHAM

PUBLIC CONSULTATION

Richborough are consulting on emerging proposals for a sustainable residential development, including affordable housing and retirement living accommodation, public open space and associated landscaping on Land at Mundesley Road, North Walsham.

A previous consultation on development proposals for the site was carried out in 2017. The site has now been identified as potential allocation in North Norfolk District Council’s ongoing consultation on additional site allocations and allocation extensions required to address soundness issues raised by the Inspector tasked with examining their new Local Plan.

This consultation is seeking local resident’s views on the latest proposals, in advance of an outline planning application being made later this year. The design has been informed by the Council’s draft Local Plan policy requirements along with surveys and technical studies undertaken to establish the opportunities and constraints of the Site.

Please take your time to look through the content of this website. We would welcome comments on the feedback form to let us know your views. Please send us your comments by Wednesday 11th December 2024.

Richborough will review all the comments received and use them to inform the proposals and will be summarised in the Statement of Community Involvement that will be submitted with the planning application.

There will be a further opportunity for the community to comment on the proposed development when the planning application is submitted to the District Council.  Local residents will be notified by the Council of any application made.
