  • 1 Joint Core Strategy for Broadland, Norwich and South Norfolk
    Joint Core Strategy for Broadland, Norwich and South Norfolk Broadland Part of Norwich Policy Area Examination Matters and Questions for Examination - May 2013 Norwich and Norfolk Transport Action Group (NNTAG) Res. No. 124224 Matter 2 – The implementation of the submitted JCS proposals 1. Whether policy 10’s proposals and associated text for employment and housing are positively prepared, justified by the evidence, consistent with national policy, and effective 1.2. Given the delay in bringing forward the NEGT, are the housing delivery figures in the JCS Appendix 6 Housing Trajectory correct? For example, has Rackheath started delivering homes in 2011/12 as stated (is this not a commitment if they are built?)? And will the remainder actually start delivery in 2014/15? The housing delivery figures are incorrect. There has been no planning application for Rackheath (not even for the 200 dwellings exemplary). In relation to additional smaller sites around Broadland, it remains to be seen whether construction will start on White House Farm and land north of Brooke Farm (dependent on economic circumstances). 1.3. Will the NDR be built in time (in part or in whole?) to meet the projected housing delivery dates and numbers in the Trajectory? If the A47 Postwick Interchange draft slip and side road orders are not confirmed by the Secretary of State, Postwick Hub as the first stage of a NDR, cannot be built and neither can a NDR. 1.4. What is the status of the application for 3,500 homes in North Sprowston, submitted in October 2012? How does this fit into the Housing Trajectory? An outline planning application has been submitted for North Sprowston, with a request from the developer that a decision be postponed until after resolution of the Submitted JCS.

  • Norfolk Broads
    Norfolk Broads Høydepunkter på kanalferie i England Gode muligheter til å nyte naturen - mange natursentre, naturreservater og fuglekiggningsstasjoner som kan besøkes. Markedsbyer og tradisjonelle bådbyggerbyer gir innsikt i det landlige livet i England. Slusefri seiling i grunne innsjøer og elver - perfekt for førstegangsseileren. Seatravel A/S | Europaplads 16, 1. sal | 8000 Aarhus C, www.sea-travel.no Attraksjoner Wroxham Wroxham anses for at være hovedstaden i Norfolk Broads og det er faktisk også her bådferie-konceptet startede i slutningen af 1800-tallet. Det er blevet temmelig kommercielt igennem årene med hoteller, pubber, te-stuer og souvenirbutikker tæt ved floden. Altsammen for at tiltrække flere bådferie- gæster til byen. Beundre Wroxham broen og de store villaer som ligger langs floden. The Bure Valley Narrow-gauge Railway er den længste smalsporede jernbane og kører mellem Wroxham og Aylsham, med mindre stationer i Brampton, Buxton og Coltishall. I byen finder man det som påstås er ”verdens største landbyforretning” med alt hvad hjertet kan begære. Det siges at George Formby boede i en af de store bungalows. Wroxham Barn Junior Farm er elsket af børn og folk i alle aldre og den ligger ½ mile nord for byen og tilbyder ”klappedyr” som på en rigtig bondegård. Man kan nyde de forskellige dyr, flaskefodring af forårslam og af kalve om efteråret, man kan selv samle æg fra hønsehusene m.m. – entré 2,95 £ børn under 3 år gratis adgang. Stedet har også en kunst håndværksbutik og er et at de mest populære steder i hele Norfolk. Det store supermarked - Roys of Wroxham - ligger 10 minutters gang fra basen.
