Noticeboards and other Parish Council Communications Questionnaire

  The Steering Group has already invited Local Green Space nominations from the Parish and has subsequently conducted thorough desktop and field assessments of all the sites nominated. 

Following these investigations, 11 sites throughout the parish of Ardleigh have been shortlisted due to their special community value. A comprehensive list of all shortlisted sites can be found 

on the work in progress tab on this page Work in Progress (ardleigh.website) and direct on this link https://bit.ly/ArdleighGreenSpaces

Some highlights from the Big Ardleigh Consultation Questionnaire

 A big thank you to the 299 people who responded to the Big Ardleigh Consultation Questionnaire. You sent in your responses directly, via the internet, or by completing a paper copy, which was collected and manually entered by a member of the Working Group. It was a great response, especially considering the challenge of ‘lock-down’ and the restrictions it presented.

 It was really encouraging to know that so many people took the time to engage and respond. 


You told us that you would like more sports and community facilities, cafes and restaurants and that there is little provision for young people in the community. You were happy with the school and Surgery and with the Village Hall but you also said that you would like a Community Hub. There was a strong feeling against any further housing development but if there were to be any it should be sustainable, in-fill and fit the character of the area. Over 90% of respondents want the rural characteristics of the parish to remain and footpaths, bridleways and lanes to be unaffected by development. We clearly have some issues over parking in the village and concerns over traffic calming. Over half who responded would support micro-businesses to set-up.

There was a good spread of response from across the parish and the age range was reasonably represented with approximately 80% between the ages of 30 and 69.
