FELMERSHAM AND RADWELL
I am born bred and educated at Sharnbrook and Bedford before 3 years at college. I worked in north Beds for 40 years before retiring in 2016 and becoming a consultant to pave the way for improved planning in Sharnbrook and neighbouring villages . I have lodged a number of reps previously, particularly on the borough plan progress. I have missed previous deadlines for the borough Plan and some of the subsequent neighbourhood Plans and I would ask to be kept informed on my former homeland and my retired home is near Huntingdon but I am in Bedford a lot because it is still my “home” with dentist, opticians, garages, Waitrose and many other facilities.
Felmersham is a composite village bordered by the River Ouse to the north. It has two internal roads linking to nearby villages. The main roadway from the church leads on to Radwell. The village open spaces provided around serve the village with some employment – bring back the PH, bakery etc and a larger village would use them.
Soundness is my only query and with respect to planning and development proposals.
