Thanks
Was thinking about the red etched area on the photo attached.
This is interesting for me, as Universal published the photos with the yellow area as land they have purchased.
However in any previous proposals like
@Alicia detailed in the Parkstop video, the dark green area of land under the part you circled in red, was actually highlighted as the entrance / exit parcel of land to the developments.
But Universal either didn’t buy that specific parcel of land in the end, or they don’t want to say they have.
The section you’ve circled is a farming business called A J Hassall & Son, technically listed as livestock and agriculture. There’s not much info available on them I don’t think other than local business listings. In terms of noise and restrictions, I’m not sure.
I would say though, the house on that land is on Woburn Road, and the A421 itself is very close too. So it’s not in the middle of the countryside, Woburn Road is a busy one.
The A421 can be very loud, especially when it rains. It’s also as you know a very busy road, and creates this constant white noise when it’s raining or wet.
There is a recreational area next to it for the Berryfields housing estate in Wootton, so not long ago sound proof panelling was installed to help dampen the noise. I think this is also the case for Wixams on the A6.
Further up from the area you circled, there’s a business and some houses. If you zoom out you can see how the huge light industry warehouses are surrounded by trees and landscaping.
Maybe Universal would do this near the circled area?
Big things getting built in empty fields is not that uncommon in this area. There is a huge Amazon warehouse just south of Wootton. They built a dedicated road straight to it, increasing lorry / truck traffic over the Wootton bridge built when the A421 was opened.
I don’t think anyone cared, because the Berryfields housing estate is only about 10 years old, and it just meant they could order things pre 10pm and be first on the rounds.
