South Woodham Ferrers: modern estates, big gardens, and the kind of householder who wants the job done properly and on time.
Land north of Burnham Road is allocated for around 1,000 homes with a neighbourhood centre. Within the existing town, covenants that once required county council approval for roof lights, chimneys and garage conversions were relaxed in 2003, opening the way for that kind of alteration. Residential culs-de-sac branch from estate roads off Ferrers Road, the ring road, and houses have short or no setbacks, so it is worth confirming that a driveway can take a skip before one is ordered. Chelmsford City Council lists no conservation area for the town.
Roads near the front carry parking restrictions and get busy in summer, so a truck that loads and leaves is easier to arrange than a skip on the road. Nothing is left on the road, so Essex County Council never needs to be involved and there's no 10 working days wait for a licence.
Fifteen minutes from base via the A130. Easy run for us, regular bookings in CM3.
