Free Notes:

434 pb Notes a Volume of traffic through villages that makes walking feel dangerous and uncomfortable. Houses on Brentwood Road put up with substantial noise nuisance. Police constantly speed through the villages. A speed of 20mph in some places would help 458 pb Notes a The amount of traffic coming through the village should be reduced, restriction on parking/loading in rush hours 460 pb Notes a Main concern is constant use of Thorndon Approach for parking, turning by footballers, cricketers, lazy mum's, and driving instructors 475 pb Notes a Changes to our villages must be tempered with common sense which we see little of in today’s society 476 pb Notes a Village would be greatly improved if heavy traffic flow reduced 55 pp Notes a Very well thought out, great way for people to get their thoughts across 80 pp Notes a Very concerned about trees and hedges being removed. This should need consent especially in conservation areas 92 pp Notes a Why do we need new Village signs? Village stores needs updating ie organic local produce (by ordering service), coffee shop, more variety of fresh breads and cakes, organic milk. Need a village youth club 482 pu Notes a Concern for speed along Billericay Road, and unsavoury characters that live near Old Dog pub 490 pu Notes a j Cars speeding in Billericay Road - over 70mph 498 pu Notes Traffic calming scheme should be placed in middle of Billericay Road between the two groups of houses by the field away from any residential properties 515 pu Notes Majority of local people feel anywhere outside Ingrave are forgotten people of village. As for the speed of vehicles along Billericay road, they often exceed 70mph our lives are blighted. Please help the people of Herongate Tye 275 qh notes a Concerns regarding teenagers riding scooters on school playing field and excessive littering 298 qh Notes a Concerned with building/parking in the village namely flats erected where Ingrave Post Office was and also house dangerously near road corner of Whitby Avenue, more houses more parking required 299 qh Notes a Parking a constant problem, constant vandalism, village councillor very unhelpful when approached 304 qh Notes a Cars should NOT be allowed to park on the pavement by the Ingrave shops 310 qh notes a Had to ask a neighbour for this questionnaire as did another neighbour if 1 out of 3 houses didn't get a questionnaire delivered this will affect the statistics! 314 qh Notes a Thank you for your efforts with the questionnaire - very grateful to those who give up their time to try and make village life better 118 ql Notes a The only few things that spoil the villages are HGV's passing through the villages, the speed of traffic passing through the villages and some narrow pavements 124 ql Notes a We need a newsagent/general store in Ingrave 127 ql Notes a Major concern with the planning authorizations which are being granted in the villages. No consideration is given to how some peoples extensions affect other people. All properties should retain a metre gap from their boundary even at ground level not just 1st floor. Access onto A128 is a concern. perhaps have some mini roundabouts 139 ql Notes a Are mobile phone masts included in 'planning'. 134 ra Notes a The village signs should NOT be changed. Children's play area is in need of improvement 283 ra Notes a Grass at Village School playing field not cut regularly and feel it is neglected by Brentwood Council 357 ra Notes a Would have appreciated more time to complete questionnaire, could it not have been done online? 359 ra Notes a Enjoy living in Ingrave but better shopping provisions would be good. 370 ra Notes a The village is often littered with red and yellow recycling boxes left empty permanently in front gardens and garden rubbish put out days before the collection date 372 ra Notes a Grateful for the opportunity to have a voice 373 ra Notes a The Appraisal is grant funded by whom????? The Taxpayer presumably 98 rf Notes a Villages should be preserved as they are with no further expansion I consider myself lucky to be a resident 103 rf Notes a There seems to be an underlying theme of concrete development as an improvement for the villages. It is a lovely environment as it is serious consideration should be given to the governments policy of 'extended use' of schools out of school hours to the wider community and fulfilling the underused community potential of the churches. Changes need to be appropriate, Ingrave's Coat of Arms needs to be changed to English, even the Royal Family adopted the English language in 1399. Everyone ought to understand the coat of arms when entering Ingrave 109 rf Notes a Questionnaire too long 375 rf Notes a In America on entering townships, there is a sign with the name of the town and its population, which is not done in this country at present, perhaps Ingrave/Herongate could start a trend! Perhaps Ingrave School children could be involved in the working out of population figures and the changing of the sign once a year taking into account births, deaths moves etc 377 rf Notes a I think the introduction of the Parish Council has put yet another layer of wasteful bureaucracy between the householder and the borough council which increases resolution time to problems 401 rf Notes a Would like to see more amenities for teenagers 404 rf Notes a A 'keep left ' sign is needed at the junction of Thorndon gate and A128. The school run in the Meadows is causing concern because of speed and the parking of increasingly large vehicles and inconsiderate drivers from outside the village 412 rf Notes a Herongate and Ingrave offer no services to the community, we should be able to walk to facilities. Villages require shops, doctors, coffee shop etc. 413 rf Notes a Please remove 'no cycling signs' and allow cyclists access to Thorndon from Thorndon Gate. Enforce clamp down on dogs mess 415 rf Notes a I think the present village signs are lovely, we don’t need change for the sake of it. 417 rf Notes a The parking restrictions at Thorndon Park make it difficult for visitors to use the park. The mobile speed camera activity is disproportionate to the problem 418 rf Notes a There is s sheer drop at Herongate end of footpath 42 which is extremely dangerous. Thorndon Park Golf club need to be advised to cut back their shrubs from the footpaths. 419 rf Notes a In considering improving the play facilities in the Village playing field, or building any kind of complex upon it, consideration should be given to the vandalism that goes on in Ingrave. Fences along footpath 162 are regularly kicked in and play equipment broken 423 rf Notes a Good questionnaire! 500 sb Notes a ##################################################################################### #### 77 pp other Parking in the area around the Green Man is getting worse and causing problems for residents and disturbance as cars manoeuvre close to houses. This has been made worse by the overdevelopment of the Old Stock Yard which currently contains 3 separate businesses. There is also the Pub and Hall both of which attract cars but neither of which have car parks. Since charging for parking at Thorndon Park some people now park in the village and any improvement to access off Park Lane would make this worse. A new hall would make this worse and would inevitably have to be available for wedding receptions etc which would cause additional disturbance often late in the evening. Consideration should be given to making a car park on the site for the hall or in the Pub garden. 340 qh other a Cycle paths, access to park. Provide more for teenagers than cricket benches, believe it or not the kids are alright if a bit spotty and poorly dressed 340 qh other b We are increasingly concerned about pollution from the farm behind houses in Ingrave, almost all the young children living nearby experience summer night time coughing. Is there a role for the PC to ask questions or the people monitoring pesticide use? 140 ql other Not an enviable task collating these answers for everybody, well done to all concerned. 143 ql other Well done for doing the survey. I hope that the results allow a good strategy to be created and published for the inhabitants of both villages. 149 ql other There have been many crashes pulling out of Common Road. The speed limit needs to be reduced earlier. + 151 ql other a Thank you to all involved in this 155 ql other Due to only moving her on 18/05/06 there were many questions we could not answer; hopefully next year we will be in a better position Apologies. 165 ql other Would like to see the pavements from Common Road to the Post Office improved on the Post Office side improved and hedges cut back. I think we had a better service from the Preservation Society which was free than we have from the Parish Council which we have to pay for. I was not advised about a Parish Council being formed. 189 ql other As a car driver I am able to manage to use local Borough facilities but my children who are teenagers have no where locally to meet their friends without belonging to football or cricket clubs. I would love to see provision for teenagers in the form of a shelter with bins on the cricket ground or playing fields just somewhere they can be together that is safe and lit. 348 ra other a Regrettably neither my wife not I could understand how the questionnaires work, therefore we went so far and gave up. 348 ra other b Ignore the above, we made a effort to fill it out but we don’t think it’s a very good format. 351 ra other Get the grave yard extended. 224 rg other a Dogs should be kept on leads in the park. 229 rg other Can we get the Green Man converted back to a village pub? 237 rg other Access to 128 from Thorndon Gate very dangerous if turning right to the village. Hedge needs to be kept trimmed. We thank you for the opportunity to express our views. 238 rg other ##################################################################################### #### 198 ql other Is the PC able to press BBC for more regular maintenance of storm drains in the roads? I have noticed several e.g. along A128 which do not appear to have been cleared since last autumn. 221 rg other We haven’t been able to complete this form fully. Although we have been in Ingrave for 10 years we rarely and have not had the time to familiarize with events in the area, the level of crime etc or the school. 17 pp other comments Affordable accommodation for young families, price dictates old community. 19 pp other comments 565 We have huge transport problems. I have two children who attend the grammar school in Chelmsford. The 565 does not always turn up in the morning ( approx 7:10 am) so I have to take them to the station. My son who is 17 has to buy an adult bus ticket to get to Brentwood before he catches the train to Shenfield then to Chelmsford and a weekly ticket works out a lot cheaper for an adult but he cannot buy this on the 565 so he has to pay for a n additional single (or rather, we his parents have to pay which i find ridiculous)and then he buys his weekly in Brentwood. You can imagine when the 565 dose not even turn up the next morning and i have to commute the opposite direction to take my children to school - i am far from happy! 20 pp other comments Would use the mobile library if I knew when it was here and where. 23 pp other comments It is worrying how many facilities seem to be in place , yet are not known about. 27 pp other comments I don’t think there is a village Bobby. 27 pp other comments not prepared to take part in scheme to car share. 34 pp other comments Although it is on the ribbon road to Brentwood, I enjoy living in Herongate. Since being newly widowed I have found many people to be kind, thoughtful and inclusive. 38 pp other comments do not wish to see the provision for a basketball court on Ingrave school playing field 39 pp other comments this survey is symptomatic of the busy body society in which now live sponsored by successive no risk governments. Individuals live where they where they do for a variety of reasons and make their entertainment where they can. the village should sponsors clean streets, peaceful neighbours and low crime. 231 qh other comments My house used to be in the neighbourhood watch. Parish newsletter is very infrequent. Not able to attend the meeting for Herongate and Ingrave Parish Council. If I am unable to drive I have to cancel my medical appointments etc. 325 qh other comments The play area at the school fields is in need of attention. Facilities have been allowed to decline. 326 qh other comments from question 24 re new developments, yes to single residencies but no to multi developments. 327 qh other comments As a newly retired person, I'm not sure of the activities available to me in the parish. Use the local hair dressers. 328 qh other comments Disappointed that the number of pieces of equipment on the play area at the school playing field have reduced and have not been replaced. 334 qh other comments I have seen the mobile library and I was somehow under the impression that it was for housebound or elderly people. would be happy to share travel, As a young mother i was involved in the school run to St Martins and this worked very well.

339 qh other comments I think my dwelling is in the neighbourhood watch I Have a problem with the early morning bus time table. No need at present for social car scheme. 260 rf other comments this questionnaire is an excellent initiative. I look forward to seeing the results. 380 rf other comments I am unable to assist with neighbour watch due to health problems. 382 rf other comments Parking is a problem at medical facilities. i.e. Hospitals etc. 382 rf other comments Dependant on the task may be able to help in the Neighbourhood watch. 388 rf other comments Bus needs to be more frequent and runs on into the evening. 389 rf other comments "Dropped kerbs" are good but in some cases they lead to a puddle as at the Herongate end of Cricket green. 389 rf other comments I go by car to medical appointments, but the disabled parking at avenue road surgery is inadequate. 391 rf other comments Given the concentration of recycling - why are the "collectors" of the red and yellow boxes allowed to throw them once emptied, resulting in said boxes end up all over the road, other peoples gardens etc. Also - at the Coxtie Green centre, why oh why are no large vehicles like jeeps or vans allowed - as long as there is a restriction for trade waste. This seems particularly potty. 397 rf other comments worried that any improvements in the Ingrave Johnstone School playing fields will be vandalized. 240 rg other comments Don't work, train or study, car is for shopping. Traffic jams on the A128 to Brentwood caused I think largely by a ludicrous construction of mini roundabouts and pedestrian-controlled traffic lights in Brentwood centre that backs up to Ingrave. 240 rg other comments the police seem to concentrate on traffic offences, rather than offences against persons and property. 249 rg other comments In my daughters home village of Steeple -Bumpstead: Fast response team saved two lives recently. Thought the playing fields belonged to the village not the school!! 255 rg other comments More should be done in regards to recycling. Plastic bottles, cardboard ,tin cans etc. more bins or bags given for people in households to separate waste for appropriate disposal. 259 rg other comments Traffic/transport A great deal of advancement could be obtained if the Brentwood council were to run their own Bus service on a minimal profit-making basis local Brentwood area only. 17 pp Property prices dictate demographics will be older community. 17 pp In 12 months we experienced 1 break in, 1 theft from outside the house, 1 car vandalised. 17 pp Brentwood police effective coverage of the area is in our opinion lacking and inactions they took were important. 19 pp Children would benefit from a circular route i.e. Herongate -Shenfield-Brentwood. 19 pp Would like cars not to park in Cricketers lane. 69 pp The area should only be improved by preservation of how the village is now not by change as this would only have a negative effect. Keep Herongate and Ingrave just as it is. 143 ql 148 ql b The only time you ever see a police officer is with a speed camera. Never on patrol and certainly not trying to be a member of the community. 149 ql d j Close to work and schools 149 ql d j More Litter Bins. 149 ql j You should put in a speed camera. 149 ql d j Safe crossing point for school children between Middle and Common Road. 149 ql 151 ql b Because its too expensive. 151 ql b Who is this? 151 ql d Who and what is this? 151 ql c Concern is appreciated. 190 ql Cycle access to Thorndon required. Safe cycle route to Brentwood town. 190 ql Expensive flexibility to share cars with neighbours. 206 ql c Have tried to use the footpaths at Button Farm - very congested, I suspect this suits the farmer! 207 ql 211 ql b Never seen the community officer 211 ql j Never seen the community officer
