Plans
The Paddock is located on the High Street on the right hand side as you go towards the Riseley Primary School.
It is adjacent to the Riseley Settlement Policy Area (SPA) on three sides.
It is in the Riseley North Conservation Area.
There are no views into the countryside from The Paddock.
Location plan including the layout of the 34 dwellings on the Margaret Beaufort School site, as in the Bedford Borough Council Vision Statement. The Margaret Beaufort site is 100m from The Paddock and is also outside the Settlement Policy Area and is partly in the Riseley North Conservation Area. 25% of the Margaret Beaufort site is "brown field" (the building) and 75% is green open space (the school playing field).
The pattern in Riseley is to build behind dwellings eg Waldocks Close, Dodds Close, Davies Gardens and the houses and bungalows off Bowers Lane in Bowers Close.
