Colchester City Council Preferred Options Local Plan Regulation 18 Consultation 2025
Policy GN6: Retention of Open Space
Representation ID: 13069
Received: 13/01/2026
Respondent: Essex County Council
Agent: Lambert Smith Hampton
Please remove the open space designation of land shown edged red on the attached plan. The open space designation is assumed to be in error (the land is used for horse grazing, and there is no public access to the land).
The proposals map shows grazing land at School Road, Langham owned by Essex County Council as being 'open space'.
The open space designation is assumed to be in error, and we would be grateful if it is possible to correct this and remove the open space designation.
The grazing land has been fenced and used for well in excess of 10 years for grazing, and has been let on a horse grazing tenancy. No public access is allowed over the land, and it has been continuously used for horse grazing.
Attached is a plan showing the grazing land edged red (overlaid on proposals map), and photographs of the site.
