London Southend Airport and Environs Joint Area Action Plan Preferred Options

Policy T3 - Upgrade to Cherry Orchard Way

Representation ID: 10145

Received: 05/05/2009

Respondent: Essex County Council

Representation Summary:

I would like to register my concerns about the effects of the proposals on the setting of the grade II listed building, Cherry Orchard Farm. This building is located to the east of Cherry Orchard Way and sits in quite rural surroundings in the Green Belt. It backs on to a Rugby playing field, with agricultural land and the golf course beyond.

The Plan proposes, as I understand, to develop an industrial estate on the playing fields immediately behind the house and to increase the width of Cherry Orchard way to the front. I consider that either of these developments could have an adverse effect on the setting of the listed building. I suggest that some sort of buffer zone around the building is necessary to preserve some of the rural character of its setting, and that this should be considered in the plan.
