It seems that, like Ipswich Town's struggles in front of goal this season, the proposal for a multi modal site is always with us. Having, as we thought, seen off the first bid, with its railway siding and lorry park, the proponents of the scheme are back with a variation.
The new proposal would swallow up all of the farmland between the A1120 link road and Clamps Farm between the railway and the A14, leaving the homes at Clamp Farm surrounded on three sides. Yes, there would be playing fields and a new park to preserve and allow access to the water meadows but, as a fellow Parish Councillor said, we're a countryside village, where parks and playing fields have limited value.
However, residents of Creeting St Peter will have a chance to find out more on Wednesday evening, when a meeting will take place, attended by Stephen Andrews from Mid Suffolk District Council, where the proposals will be available to view and discuss.
Remember, it's your village, and sometimes you have to fight to preserve it...
