138 The Occupier Do all our residents know about all the small parks that are in the area, I was here 10 years before coming aware
Design and landscape are always important - but this does not mean building mock ? Scale, proportion and accessibility to
139 Ms A Clark
clients/users is what matters.
Character is always important. A local list is a good idea but err on 'old charm from the outside' inside can be adapted to
140 Mrs J Davies
efficiency and an economically run modern design.
141 Mr & Mrs Sarchet Yes. We support the introduction of a local list. The benefits we see will be to protect the character of this area.
The flats being developed appear to have been planned without any aesthetic values. They will soon appear to be a local
142 D Tilley/R Bhandari discrepancy, out of keeping with village character. We should have learnt to do better by now!
146 A C Barton There is wastage of land from the past, grass verges which do little to enhance and ? Upkeep.
Have serious reservations about the "square" development and the impact it will have on Rochford generally, stopping
147 Mr I Randall
parking etc. Not sure what a "local list" would achieve?
148 L F Wallace You have not got a clue!
149 Cunningham No
150 Ms N Saunders New homes always look new. They are too small and look like they won't last 5 minutes. My home is like a cardboard box!
The whole area within the confines of Rochford are very important in design and landscaping - the example I have given are
151 Mr R Roles
not very encouraging. The question, "have we got this right" the answer a very definite NO.
I think the idea of a local list is an excellent one. Design/Landscaping and townscaping are what distinguishes
152 Mr S Crowther
Rayleigh/Rochford and area from other settlements in the area.
Design and landscaping in this area are important, they should always be in keeping with the environment and the character
of the area, this has not always been the case. Contractors have been allowed to build large houses out of character with
153 Mrs S Bradshaw the area and difficult to sell.
Good landscaping is just window dressing. It is hard to believe character is important when traditional Essex landmark
buildings are torn down to accommode yet more crammed-in new-build shoe boxes. High Street shopping areas need help
156 J W Collins
to avoid becoming chain store clones. Large supermarkets do not help - we have enough already.
The character of Rayleigh Town centre has largely been destroyed by ugly building work. Future alterations to premises
158 Mr & Mrs White must remedy this. Hockley looks a mess. Rochford must retain its town centre character at all costs.
Too many flats being built. On corner of White House Chase and Eastwood Road is a typical example where once was a
nursery and lovely white timered house there is now loads of development, where are these people going to send their
children to school, visit doctors, teenagers to let off steam and police to police the Rayleigh area, to get police to call out at
159 Mr & Mrs J Collins present is a joke!
Landscaping is very important. You have to be proud of the area you live in. Hullbridge need to look more like a village
160 Ms S Barnes
and less like a housing estate. Its getting better but more needs to be done.
161 Mr S J Benee The council seems to have got it right so far.
Design and landscaping are very important everywhere. Recent developments in Rochford have blended in well. I can't at
162 Mr & Mrs Livens present see the benefit of a local list. Surely local character is obvious.
It wuold be a good idea to draw-up and publish a local list detailing the character of the local area. Then residents will
163 Mr S T Cardwell probably have a better idea of the future possibilities.
Design is very important in our Villages don't make the mistakes of the 70/80's a modern supermarket in Rochford
164 Mr I King
Square??.
