Bad news for Hilperton ... (and Holt) ?
More housing might be 'allocated' for the villages.
The report, for some reason, insisted on classing Hilperton sites as being in 'Trowbridge', which we are pressing to be corrected. Allowing for that fact (and that the actual site locations weren't available) the following list might interest residents of Hilperton and Holt.
All sites are believed to be 'Hilperton' unless stated otherwise.
Church Farm 14 (properties)
Land at Hilperton Gap 88
The Grange and land adjoining 21
Land at Hilperton Gap 50
Land south of Devizes Road 28
Blue Hills 16
Enniswood House 170
Land to the rear of The Lion & Fiddle 12
Land rear of Church Street 282
Land to rear of 116 Trowbridge Road 56
Land to rear of 118 Trowbridge Road 66
Land east of Trowbridge (unique reference number 723) 2,437 (over 108 hectares)
Some of these sites were already known about, but some are 'bolts from the blue'. I will get more detailed information a.s.a.p.
Also a bit of a shock, were a couple of other possibilites in the area.
Broughton Gifford. Paddock at The Street 15
Holt. Land north of the recreation ground 18
Holt. Kingston Farm House 7
Holt. Unspecified (unique reference 180) 31
Holt. Industrial Estate 68
Holt. Manor Farm 158.
