Policy GNLP3003: Mill Road, Reedham

6.95

This site off Mill Road is allocated for residential development due to its immediate proximity to Reedham Primary School and minimal other constraints, however, it is accepted that it is not possible to provide an off-carriageway pedestrian footway to the school.  The site is allocated subject to vehicular access via Mill Road and pedestrian only access at Holly Farm Road.  The vehicular access point at Mill Road will require visibility over the frontage of ‘The Brambles’ to the north which may require 3rd party land.

Policy GNLP3003: Mill Road, Reedham

Mill Road, Reedham (approx. 1.29Ha) is allocated for residential development.  The site is likely to accommodate approximately30 homes.

More homes may be accommodated, subject to an acceptable design and layout as well as infrastructure constraints.

The development will be expected to address the following specific matters:

  1. Vehicle access via Mill Road with pedestrian only access at Holly Farm Road;
  2. Visibility for access is restricted and will need further investigation as this may require use of third-party land in order to be achieved;
  3. Consideration of setting of non-designated heritage asset
  4. Landscaping to mitigate the potential for noise pollution and vibrations resulting from proximity of the site to the railway line
  5. Norfolk Minerals and Waste Core Strategy Policy CS16 applies, as this site is partly underlain by safeguarded minerals resources.  The benefits of extracting the minerals, if feasible, will be taken into consideration.
