“People who live and work in and around Cranbrook are to have their say on a range of subjects as part of the ‘Your town, Your future, Your say’ consultation.
Health and wellbeing, culture, sport and community, economy and enterprise, energy and climate change, transport, landscape and biodiversity, design and housing which have been published in a Cranbrook Issues and Options Report. …
… Mark Williams, Chief Executive of East Devon District Council said:“This is the first major consultation to engage residents of Cranbrook and give people an opportunity to influence how their town grows and what they would like to see happen.
We have made amazing progress over the past five years. Cranbrook has grown from zero to over 1,300 homes and in the next five it will more than double in size. In 20 year’s time Cranbrook will be as big as Barnstaple!” …
Good luck with that, people of Cranbrook – especially if you don’t want to live in a town the size of Barnstaple.
And you might want to check the developers’ plans – they will be very well advanced and will certainly take precedence over any ideas you may have.
Perhaps start with truly-affordable housing, garages wide enough for cars, streets wide enough for buses and a hospital (after all there is one in Barnstaple with 423 beds for its 20,000 plus population) … see where that gets you!

I note that EDDC made a major spelling mistake when naming Cranbrook – Crambrook might have been a more apt name.
