Scott Properties Ltd (‘Scott Properties’) to support a full planning application at Land west of Mill Lane, Tye Green Cressing (‘the Site’). The application seeks permission for: Development of 80 no. age-restricted (to over-55s) bungalows; with provision of c. 4 ha of public informal open space incorporating, allotments, dog exercising area and potential land for community facility (‘the Proposed Development’). 1.2 The Proposed Development has sought to respond to adopted and emerging policies and guidance, at the national, District and Parish levels; and has been informed by pre-application engagement. Fundamentally, the Proposed Development comprises two elements. 1.3 On the eastern portion of the Site, it seeks to provide dwellings to contribute towards meeting current housing need in the District, and help address the existing deficit in supply. Specifically, it will provide age-restricted housing that is designed to meet the needs of older persons and be capable of adaptation to respond to changing circumstances. In this regards, the Proposed Development will address a particular need which neither the existing nor the emerging Development Plan addresses. 1.4 On the western portion of the Site, it seeks to provide new green amenity space to respond to local need as identified in the Cressing Neighbourhood Plan (2020). 1.5 Both elements are considered to represent significant benefits of the Proposed Development. 1.6 Scott Properties, the applicant, is an established local developer with a proven track record of delivering homes, including those specifically designed to meet the needs of older persons. 1.7 In accordance with the Council’s list of local validation requirements, and further to pre-application discussions, the application is supported by the following: 1 Land west of Mill Lane, Tye Green Cressing Document Consultant Planning Statement Strutt & Parker Statement of Community Involvement M Scott Properties Design and Access Statement Brown & Co Architecture and Planning Masterplan Layout (Ref: 20/028849/05/D) Brown & Co Architecture and Planning Architectural Plans: Brown & Co Architecture and CRE-BAC-ZZ-ZZ-DR-A-0100 Location Plan Planning CRE-BAC-ZZ-ZZ-DR-A-0101 Masterplan Layout CRE-BAC-ZZ-ZZ-DR-A-0102 Garden Sizes & Plot Distances CRE-BAC-ZZ-ZZ-DR-A-0103 Housing Mix and Tenure Plan CRE-BAC-ZZ-ZZ-DR-A-0104 Building Heights Plan CRE-BAC-ZZ-ZZ-DR-A-0105 Parking Plan CRE-BAC-ZZ-ZZ-DR-A-0106 Refuse Strategy Plan CRE-BAC-ZZ-ZZ-DR-A-0107 Material Plan CRE-BAC-GA1-00-DR-A-0200 Single Garage Type 01 CRE-BAC-GA2-00-DR-A-0201 Double garage Type 01 CRE-BAC-GA3-00-DR-A-0202 Double garage Type 01 CRE-BAC-GA4-00-DR-A-0203 Double garage Type 02 CRE-BAC-GA5-00-DR-A-0204 Double garage Type 02 CRE-BAC-HE1-00-DR-A-0300 SR – 2B – Heather Lnk CRE-BAC-HE2-00-DR-A-0301 SR – 2B – Heather Lnk CRE-BAC-LI1-00-DR-A-0302 SR – 2B – Lily Det CRE-BAC-LI2-00-DR-A-0303 SR – 2B – Lily Lnk – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-LI2-ZZ-DR-A-0304 SR – 2B – Lily Lnk – Elevation 2 Land west of Mill Lane, Tye Green Cressing CRE-BAC-CA1-00-DR-A-0305 SR – 2B – Camellia Semi-Det – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-CA1-ZZ-DR-A-0306 SR – 2B – Camellia Semi-Det – Elevation CRE-BAC-CA2-00-DR-A-0307 SR – 2B – Camellia Semi-Det – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-CA2-ZZ-DR-A-0308SR – 2B – Camellia Semi-Det – Elevation CRE-BAC-HI1-00-DR-A-0309SR – 3B – Hibiscus Det CRE-BAC-MA1-00-DR-A-0310SR – 3B – Magnolia Det CRE-BAC-MA2-00-DR-A-0311SR – 3B – Magnolia Det CRE-BAC-JA1-00-DR-A-0312SR – 3B – Jasmine Det CRE-BAC-JA2-00-DR-A-0313SR – 3B – Jasmine Lnk – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-JA2-ZZ-DR-A-0314SR – 3B – Jasmine Lnk – Elevation CRE-BAC-JA3-00-DR-A-0315SR – 3B – Jasmine Lnk – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-JA3-ZZ-DR-A-0316SR – 3B – Jasmine Lnk – Elevation CRE-BAC-JA4-00-DR-A-0317SR – 3B – Jasmine Lnk – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-JA4-ZZ-DR-A-0318SR – 3B – Jasmine Lnk – Elevation CRE-BAC-JA5-00-DR-A-0319SR – 3B – Jasmine Int CRE-BAC-WI1-00-DR-A-0320SR – 3B – Wisteria Det CRE-BAC-JU1-00-DR-A-0321SR – 4B – Juniper Det CRE-BAC-JU2-00-DR-A-0322SR – 4B – Juniper Det CRE-BAC-AF1-00-DR-A-0323SR – 2B – Aff Semi-Det Type 01 CRE-BAC-AF2-00-DR-A-0324SR – 2B – Aff Semi-Det Type 01 CRE-BAC-AF3-00-DR-A-0325SR – 2B – Aff Semi-Det Type 02 CRE-BAC-AF4-00-DR-A-0326SR – 2B – Aff Semi-Det Type 02 CRE-BAC-AF5-00-DR-A-0327SR – 2B – Aff Det Type 01 CRE-BAC-AF6-00-DR-A-0328SR – 2B – Aff Det Type 01 CRE-BAC-AF7-00-DR-A-0329SR – 2B (3) – Aff Det Type 01 CRE-BAC-AF8-00-DR-A-0330SR – 3B – Aff Semi-Det Type 01 3 Land west of Mill Lane, Tye Green Cressing CRE-BAC-AF9-00-DR-A-0331SR – 3B – Aff Semi-Det Type 01 CRE-BAC-AF10-00-DR-A-0332SR – 3B – Aff Semi-Det Type 02 CRE-BAC-AF11-00-DR-A-0333SR – 3B – Aff Det Type 01 CRE-BAC-TE1-00-DR-A-0334SR – 1B – Terrace Type 01 CRE-BAC-AL1-00-DR-A-0335SR – Almshouse Type 01 – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-AL1-ZZ-DR-A-0336SR – Almshouse Type 01 – Elevation CRE-BAC-AL2-00-DR-A-0337SR – Almshouse Type 02 – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-AL2-ZZ-DR-A-0338SR – Almshouse Type 02 – Elevation CRE-BAC-AL3-00-DR-A-0339SR – Almshouse Type 03 – Floor Plan CRE-BAC-AL3-ZZ-DR-A-0340SR – Almshouse Type 03 – Elevation Transport Assessment Cannon Consulting Engineers Topographical Survey BB Surveys Ltd Landscape Visual Assessment Nigel Cowlin Ltd Preliminary Ecological Appraisal Geosphere Environmental Arboricultural Survey Geosphere Environmental Letter Addendum to Phase 1 Desk Study Ref: Geosphere 1216,DS,EC,AR,DESK,AB,TP,11-06-15,V2 Environmental Phase 1 Desk Study Geosphere Environmental Flood Risk Assessment Cannon Consulting Engineers Heritage Statement RPS Group Archaeological Desk Based Assessment RPS Group 1.8 The Planning statement is structured as follows: Section 2 describes the Site and surroundings.

  • The Major New BBC1 Series – 'How We Built Britain' Looks at the History of the Country Through Our Buildings
    How we Built Britain The BBC1 series – ‘How we Built Britain’ (shown Summer 2007) looked at the history of the country through our buildings. The first programme featured the East of England region – which abounds in outstanding examples of architecture. From Britain’s greatest collection of cathedrals to the award-winning terminal at Stansted Airport. Discover flint and timber buildings, and stately homes dating from Tudor to Victorian times. Over the next few pages we have listed a selection of key places to visit - check out our web site at www.visiteastofengland.com for opening times and admission prices. Architecture of the Region Building stone is virtually non-existent in the East of England, apart from a few special areas: z Barnack (Cambridgeshire) - the famous limestone here was worked from Roman times to the end of the 15th C. Ely and Peterborough Cathedrals are good examples of the stone in use. z Carstone (West Norfolk) - this dark brown stone forms a ridge between Castle Rising and Heacham. It has been widely used in the area as a building stone, and Downham Market was once known as the "Gingerbread town". z Puddingstone (Hertfordshire) - this unusual stone is made up of rounded Flint villages flint pebbles. A large piece sits opposite the church in the village of Standon. It has been used for building walls. z Sandstone - The Greensand Ridge runs from Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire to Gamlingay in Cambridgeshire. In some places, ‘glauconite’ (an iron-bearing mineral) colours the stone an amazing green - the origin of the name ‘Greensand’. Today you can see it used in local villages, churches, walls and bridges.
