This kind of thing is very worrying and must be addressed as early as possible especially if it is being done without the necessary consent having been obtained. Can you be a bit more specific about the location? A house name, or a description of the location in terms of the physical geography etc. Thanks

Thanks for your interest,the name of the property was GLENHOUSE,but they have renamed it IVANS WAY,it is on the right hand of the road just before you get to CAR QUIP the car breakers towards Nordelph end of the road.Ihave just come in from work and the road is covered in mud and dangerous now that it is raining,and may freeze tonight.
Have been in touch with council and they state their as been no planning application for this property or change of use,they say it is agricultral land.
Hope this helps you out

I came back along Barroway Drove from the Nordelph end earlier this evening and noticed the mud all over the road near the scrap yard.

How reliable do you think the rumours are? Personally, I feel a little suspicious that this work has started just after christmas, when the council offices are closed until the new year.

I am not sure there is anything to be done until the council is back in the new year, but if there is anything other than 'landscaping' going on there, such as building work, I think you need to bring it to the attention of the planning enforcement dept.

As for the danger caused by the mud on the road, I see no reason why that should not be reported to the Police, who should have an 'emergency' contact to arrange the removal of the hazard.

Hi,

It has been really interesting to find out the Bishop travel have moved to the property mentioned.

I too have noticed the mud and did also contact the council.

They could not tell me anything about the mud and only knew of carquip and there regulations.

Interestingly, I learnt that Carquip only has planning for 40 cars.  I would say from the road, there appears more than that!

Seems that people can do what they like, these days!  And as for the council, they seemed not bothered and unhelpful.

Any more news?

Hi thanks for your intrest if all we all keep a watch on the situation and chase up the planning dept of the council once they start laying concrete down then we will be able to do some thing about it, untill then the council won't do any thing.

i have no interest in bishops travel   apart  from that i live near... i have to say i have never been upset  or awakened by happenings  ... i actually like the fact  that hedges have been planted (doing it right me thinks..) and whilst we all want p and q   it simply isnt our right    also you dont own the view out of your lounge window!!!  (your lucky    eastender there arnt pigs on there!!! )

that being said i understand the whinging and whining     but life goes on  get on with it  were in the country roads get dirty   

so yes i support bishops travel moving in they add security  to the drove      and dont forget car equip   so thats   2 strong local firms doing it for the drove   ....   

and all you lot do is whinge to ncc bcklwn and environment agency     so i  say get a life grow up  and support those who  help to bring norfolk a living.. if you dont like it  move !! its as easy as that 

this forum needs a reality check

all you do is moan whinge  and complain  WHY

you need to grow up and understand  that yes you have a  place on the drove  but your right to an idealic perfect retreat  isnt  guaranteed... and when things change  you think your world has collapsed

 
this is a bad place to be too many nimbys!!(i cannot say the word i want to use it begins with W)

my parting shot    i aggree about the road surface   its crap... thats great lets all drive slower   and thats a positive!!

woof  kty bach

and several more woofs""
