Plans for three new houses behind Bracklesham Co-op withdrawn
Two semi-detached and one detached houses were proposed to be built on the land rear to the Co-op on Bracklesham Lane.
A new access road to the Co-op was also part of the proposal where the road would have also served the proposed properties.

The proposal was met with objection by several members of the local population.
Miss Sharon Smith from Bracklesham opposed the plans for numerous reasons including that the proposal would: ‘add more pressure to an already compromised sewage system, increase traffic on an already overloaded network and will do nothing to provide affordable housing to locals.’
Mr Gary Fraser, also from Bracklesham, raised concern that ‘the development would have a negative impact on the local wildlife, including lizards and the Wildlife Trust protected slow worms.’

This will have an adverse impact upon the street scene and will negatively impact upon neighbourhood amenity.’
