I consider that option 2b with a new settlement at Little Barford is the best option. The East West rail station south of St Neots will provide a truly sustainable form of development at Little Barford. It will be better connected to the new station than Dennybrook. The latter does not provide a suitable alternative – too far from the rail station, risk of coalescence, good agricultural land. My second preference if Little Barford were deemed unsuitable would be Twinwoods at Thurleigh as a significant part of the site is brownfield land.
