August District and County Council Report
Including the consultation on the draft Greater Cambridge Local Plan
The small village of Horseheath sits within its own Parish amongst the rolling countryside south-east of Cambridgeshire close to both Suffolk and Essex. With a population of around 460 people, the Parish includes the hamlet of Cardinal’s Green which is divided from the main village by the A1307 Cambridge to Haverhill Road. We have a long history with beautiful buildings and local walks including the Roman Road to Cambridge. Our active community includes the Horseheath Village Community Association which manages our charming Village Hall. Horseheath Cricket Club play regularly on the cricket ground while our Grade 1 listed All Saints Church will delight you. There is always a warm welcome at the Old Red Lion Inn. Enjoy this site - but better come and visit our delightful village!

Including the consultation on the draft Greater Cambridge Local Plan
The draft Local Plan for Greater Cambridge sets out the proposals for our built and natural enviroment over the next 20 years. The final public consultation on this major blueprint is now open.
The Greater Cambridge draft Local Plan includes a proposal for a new small town at Grange Farm, north of Abington, of 4500 houses. The Parish Council, like all other local Parish Councils, think this is the wrong place for this development.
The Club's annual Cricket Smash is on Sunday 30th August. With an all day barbecue and bar it is a fantastic and fun day out for everyone! Come along and support your favourite team.....
Horseheath and West Wickham Parish Councils invite you to an open meeting on Monday 17th August at 7.30pm at West Wickham Village Hall to hear about and discuss the proposed development at Grange Farm.
