LAND
TO THE REAR OF FRIENDS FIELD
For many years (30+)
this plot of land has been used as an apple orchard containing over
1000 mature trees.
Left Photo circa 1985
- orchard to the rear of property in Friends Field.
In 1988 developers
applied for planning permission to erect some 40 properties on this
land. Objections were made by the residents and the Parish Council.
Babergh District Council subsequently refused this application and
it went to Appeal.

EVES ORCHARD
The plot of land along
the unmade road to the Telephone Exchange is seeking planning consent
for 2 houses and garden.
At the rear of these properties, there is an unofficial footpath which
runs between Friends Field and Nayland Road, this will be diverted.
The existing properties consist of two derelict cottages and an apple
packing shed.
This was in use many years ago by Dennis Eaves(dec) when he operated a
fruit and veg stall from this site.
