These are settlements based on the ethos of ‘Garden Cities’ promoted by the Town and Country Planning Association (https://www.tcpa.org.uk/garden-city-principles) and Government but tailored to the needs and character of North Essex. AECOM has undertaken a detailed baseline review and multi-criteria analysis of various options, identifying three broad locations at West of Braintree, Marks Tey and East of Colchester in Tendring District for further master planning (https://www.braintree.gov.uk/info/200130/about_braintree_district/992/north_essex_garden_communities). These locations are considered to be the most sustainable option for the future development of Garden Communities in North Essex and provide a major opportunity for high quality, cohesive and distinctive mixed use development.

Hon. Patrick Jenkin MP Secretary of State for the Environment 1. In a letter dated 15 February 1982, Braintree District Council requested us to propose changes in two places to the boundary of their district with the Borough of Colchester and the Borough of Chalmsford. The request arose out of Braintree District Council's parish review. One of the changes recommended to us arose from a suggestion by Peering Parish Council and involved the transfer of four houses and a farm from the parishes of Marks Tey and Copford in the Borough of Colchester to the parish of Peering in the District of Braintree. The other recommended change arose originally as a suggestion by Hatfield Peverel Parish Council and would result in the transfer of one property in Damases Lane in Hatfield Feverel in the District of Braintree to the parish of Boreham in the Borough of Chelmsford. 2. Colchester Borough Council and the parishes of Marks Tey and Copford had no objections to the suggested Marks Tey and Copford/Feering change.
