Representation Summary:

6.38 these (higher) settlements are characteristically more developed with a greater level of infrastructure and service provision than the smaller settlements, and therefore would provide more sustainable development.
I am strongly objecting to the idea that smaller settlements, such as Hullbridge, can cope with further development. It is very important to retain the open, rural character of the area and not let it merge with its neighbours. There is no infrastructure or service provision for development and no space in which to provide this.
