Granted under planning application no. DC/17/054204 by Babergh District Council. The approval consent gives permission for the construction of 2 two bedroom houses, 3 three bedroom houses, 3 four bedroom houses and 4 one bedroom maisonettes. The consent also requires 6 two bedroom houses which are to be affordable homes. The community infrastructure levy is applicable on this planning permission and we understand that this is to be approximately £146,000 as a total project cost, although the final amount of CIL payable will be confirmed by Babergh District Council on the grant of full planning. Elmsett benefits from a village store/post office, public house and primary school and is located some three miles from the market town of Hadleigh. Hadleigh can be found on the Essex/Suffolk border just ten miles from Ipswich, fifteen miles from Colchester and approximately seventy miles from London. The centre of the district is maybe one of East Anglia’s best kept secrets, characterised by rural villages and historic market towns, such as Lavenham, Stoke by Nayland, Kersey and Hadleigh. With excellent nearby transport links to the A12 and A14, together with access to main line rail stations in Ipswich, Manningtree and Colchester, Hadleigh has become a desirable residential location for both local families and London commuters.

  • Babergh District Council
    Draft recommendations on the new electoral arrangements for Babergh District Council Consultation response from Babergh District Council Babergh District Council (BDC) considered the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s draft proposals for the warding arrangements in the Babergh District at its meeting on 21 November 2017, and made the following comments and observations: South Eastern Parishes Brantham & Holbrook – It was suggested that Stutton & Holbrook should be joined to form a single member ward and that Brantham & Tattingstone form a second single member ward. This would result in electorates of 2104 and 2661 respectively. It is acknowledged the Brantham & Tattingstone pairing is slightly over the 10% variation threshold from the average electorate however this proposal represents better community linkages. Capel St Mary and East Bergholt – There was general support for single member wards for these areas. Chelmondiston – The Council was keen to ensure that the Boundary Commission uses the correct spelling of Chelmondiston (not Chelmondistan) in its future publications. There were comments from some Councillors that Bentley did not share common links with the other areas included in the proposed Chelmondiston Ward, however there did not appear to be an obvious alternative grouping for Bentley without significant alteration to the scheme for the whole of the South Eastern parishes. Copdock & Washbrook - It would be more appropriate for Great and Little Wenham to either be in a ward with Capel St Mary with which the villages share a vicar and the people go to for shops and doctors etc. Or alternatively with Raydon, Holton St Mary and the other villages in that ward as they border Raydon airfield and share issues concerning Notley Enterprise Park.

Virtual meetings, attendance of public Like Babergh, the county’s equivalent of planning meetings (Development and Regulation) is meeting online and making decisions as normal. Members of the public can speak at these meetings (to object or support) as normal after this was initially ruled out due to IT issues. Traffic calming measures to protect walkers/cyclists Hadleigh Town Council and Sudbury TC and a few villages, including Lavenham, have taken advantage of this emergency funding to get traffic measures installed including 20mph limit and one way traffic organised. Cycling On 16 June, the county council cabinet approved a new costed, prioritised list of cycle routes around the county.

It was envisaged that while still in its infancy, the PPG would grow in membership and become a representative voice of the local patient population and have an increasing influence on how the practice develops/ commissions its services. In April 2013 the new governing bodies, National Commissioning Board, West Suffolk Clinical Commissioning Group, Suffolk County Council came into effect. These bodies oversee, the provision of Primary Health Care in West Suffolk. As mentioned in last year’s survey Primary Health Care is going through a period of extreme change. The support and contribution from the PPG at this time is an integral part of our ongoing focus to ensure that our patients are more involved in decisions relating to both the quality and range of services provided by the Long Melford Practice to the local community. The survey commissioned for the year ending March 2014 was based on the General Practice Assessment Questionnaire (GPAQ) survey and adapted for local use by asking questions relevant to the issues raised by the PPG, these included patient access and practice refurbishment.
