Representation ID: 59154

Received: 13/12/2021

Respondent: Silverley Properties Ltd

Agent: Turley

Representation Summary:

Willingham is a Minor Rural Centre, central within the overall hierarchy, but towards the top end of the village categories. Willingham benefits from a large number of services and facilities including a primary school, medical practice, Post Office, shops, pubs, takeaways, library, various social, leisure and recreational facilities, a bus service and close proximity to Longstanton Park and Ride. Despite Willingham being sustainable, no sites are proposed for allocation within the village. Land South of Newington, Willingham would offer the opportunity for a site that benefits from sustainable travel opportunities, in addition to service and facilities within the village.
