Protect Rochford’s Green Belt
and Preserve Our Village Culture
Stop Rochford Overdevelopment (SRO) is a community-driven campaign opposing unsustainable development in Rochford. Over 2,300 additional homes are being proposed by Hemspan and Bellway Strategic Land. SRO has been formed to deliver fact-based objections and give residents a strong voice.
Key Facts You Need to Know
1. Developers are in predation mode – with recent national policy changes, all Green Belt land is now under threat.
2. 50% of these new homes will be “affordable” – but in practice, “affordable” often means allocated outside Rochford, not for local families.
3. Past developments show: many homes are filled by London borough relocations, which brings little benefit to our community and risks eroding the village identity and culture that make Rochford special.
4. Our infrastructure is already at breaking point – schools, GP surgeries, roads, and drainage cannot support this scale of development.
