A well related site adjoining the village edge on two sides and its development will provide a 'rounding off' of the village built area on the north side. The site has good access links to the village centre and facilities, and good connections to the wider village path network. The site can deliver a range of housing types and tenures to meet the housing need. At present the existing housing on the north side of the village is exposed with minimal boundary hedgerows (see landscape views). Landscaping in conjunction with new development would enable a soft green edge to the village which could be extended along the north boundary of the existing development off Murfitt Way to improve views when entering the village from the north. This also provides the opportunity to enhance biodiversity. The development provides the opportunity for footpath improvements linking the village to Gamlingay wood and through to Grays Road along with the provision of gateway parks forming public open space.
