Having lived next to the golf course for 20 years we know it is prone to flooding in heavy rain, as is the lower part of our garden. I would be worried that any drainage measures on the new development would have a negative effect on our property.

The village of scraptoft is situated in a valley and forms part of a flood plain. The building of 1200 houses on the surrounding higher ground will increase the amount of surface water. The Scraptoft brook has limited capacity and often floods where it passes under Hamilton Lane. After a heavy rain storm water often runs down Church Hill into Main Street. This has increased since the building of houses around the Hall. The geographical location of Scraptoft and an increasing amount of rainfall, due to climate change, will create real problems in the future.

as the golf course sits on high ground above low lying scraptoft which already has seen flooding over the last few years due to other housing developments on high ground without vast changes to the drainage system no way could I think of supporting this huge development which is completely unwarranted .this 18 hole golf course should stay as the huge amount of trees act as a natural drainage system and is a natural extension to our much loved nature reserve the huge quantity of concrete required for this development would be devastating for the environment

Foul flows from the development will join a 225 mm dia foul pipe on Hamilton Lane. Surface Water flows will join local network or drain directly to Scrapcroft Brook. There are no reported floodings nearby. However further D/S there is a large flooding cluster on Upingham Rd and The Portney Road. Flows from the development may exacerbate flooding in these locations. Topography of the site means that pumps won't be required on site.
Potential impact on sewerage infrastructure: Low
