FAQ's

Q: Are you opposed to all development?

A: No. We support new homes that are proportionate, sustainable, and backed by proper infrastructure. This proposal fails on all three counts.

​

Q: Why are the South Godstone proposals a problem?

A: They are simply too big. Its scale is far beyond what South Godstone can support. It risks overwhelming roads, schools, healthcare, and the village’s character.

​

Q: Isn’t housing needed?

A: Yes — but not at any cost. Many have seen beauty and space sacrificed for volume and speed. Over‑development helps no one, including future residents.

​​

Q: What are you asking the council or developers to do?

A: Listen to residents, scale the proposal back, and ensure infrastructure comes before expansion.

​

Q: What’s your alternative?

A: A smaller, phased development supported by real infrastructure investment and genuine community consultation.

 

Q: Is this NIMBYism or Blocking?

A: No. This is about responsible and sustainable planning, environmental protection, and community wellbeing.
