Villages should be protected from further development. This corner of Essex is already covered in housing and it's important that district residents still have green spaces to escape to for mental and physical wellbeing. Stambridge is the gateway to this rural landscape and needs to retain it's greenbelt and productive farmland. If farmland or greenbelt is sold to developers once it's gone, it's gone for ever! We need to protect it for the generations to come.
