Staploe Parish neighbourhood plan survey demonstrated that the rural feel of our parish is greatly valued by our residents. Our rural lanes are a distinctive local feature and many have roadside nature reserves. Developing a large new town of Dennybrook or other sites in Duloe such as Cobholden, Manor Farm, Duloe Field, Flints Field and Top Homes may necessitate widening and urbanisation of these roads and destroy valued hedgerows - contrary to the comments in this landscape character assessment. Also, our Hamlets are much more sparsely populated than Thurleigh ( the model settlement given for our landscape type ).
