Apologies Ed Bates (EB), Linda Hall (LH), Jim Boot (JB), John Leavens (JL), Peter Rollington (PR) 2. A Developer’s View Dave Hugget (DH) (Persimon Homes) provided the group with a view of Goudhurst from the perspective of a major housebuilder. Dave noted that NDP’s were becoming more commonplace and developers were becoming more actively involved in the consultation phase of the NDP process and challenging where necessary. NDPs sit below local and national plans and NDP alignment with wider plans is the principal area of challenge. Another area is EU directives for example ecology, SSI’s etc. TWBC have historically seen Tunbridge Wells and Paddock Wood taking the majority of development with previous plans allocating only 360 new houses across all villages. Although numbers were now larger DH was of the view that the overall proportions would not dramatically change. DH felt that the geography, surroundings etc. of Goudhurst and TWBC’s historic view of the village would not make it a viable centre for development (Cranbrook is our local Rural Centre) and that, as a consequence, the major housebuilders were unlikely to target Goudhurst for development. DH emphasised that the NDP should deliver Positive Planning and understanding how development could be assessed (criteria) and supported - for example in the allocation of sites. -
From: Linda Hall Sent: 08 July 2015 20:25 To: Reviews Subject: Redrawing Boundaries in Kent
From: Linda Hall Sent: 08 July 2015 20:25 To: reviews Subject: redrawing boundaries in Kent I wish to make a submission about the proposal to remove Goudhurst village and include it in the Cranbrook division of KCC. Goudhurst is a small village and has hitherto been paired with Lamberhurst, another but very slightly smaller village. Cranbrook is a town, albeit a small one, but it is many times the size of Goudhurst. Hawkhurst is called a village but is actually the same size in numbers as Cranbrook and has the urban characteristics of Cranbrook, size of population, frequent bus services, a straight road connection between the two towns, a library, a supermarket and a wide range of independent shops. There is no library nor supermarket in Goudhurst, whose shopping centre of choice is TWells. Cranbrook is in the parliamentary constituency of Maidstone and the Weald, whereas Goudhurst is in TWells parliamentary constituency. The focus of political loyalty and interest lies in different major towns to be found in different directions. Moreover, the residents of Cranbrook go to Maidstone to shop as it is closer to Cranbrook than TWells or even Tenterden. It is a straight road of 11 miles from CK to Maidstone. Furthermore, both Cranbrook and Hawkhurst are destined for enormous housing growth, whereas the village of Goudhurst is not destined to have any new housing. In that respect it is closer in interests and outlook to Lamberhurst, Horsmonden, Brenchley and Matfield, all of them linked to TWells. It might be argued that the CK division has several villages in it. -

Tunbridge Wells Borough Landscape Character Assessment 104 Character Area 10: Kilndown Wooded Farmland Key Characteristics 1) An intricate topography with a rolling sandstone plateau that forms a series of high ridges which are regularly incised by the thin narrow tributary valleys of the River Teise. The basic underlying geological structure of the Local Character Area is of Tunbridge Wells Sandstone forming high ridges, with Wadhurst Clay and localised thin belts of alluvium deposits in the valleys. A higher proportion of Wadhurst Clay and Ashdown Beds occur to the north and north-east of the area within the network of tributary valleys of the Teise. The three tributaries of the River Teise, the largest of which is the River Bewl, flow in a general south to north direction through the area and have a great influence on its character. -
