Plans to extend White Notley golf club have been altered in a bid to address residents' concerns.

Residents and parish councillors were invited to White Notley Village Hall to view draft plans to expand the Notleys Golf Club at Witham Road, The Green.

An application has been lodged by farmer David Earey for nine holes in 24 hectares of land between Witham Road and Pole Lane.

A spokeswoman for agents John R Barber said: "We invited parish councils and residents to look at a draft plans and to make suggestions as to how they could see improvements to it in terms of location of tees, landscaping in relation with the footpaths and highways and we have taken on board people's comments and will now be altering the plans which will go through the full consultation process with Braintree Council."

About 50 people were at the meeting and had expressed concern at the possible visual impact
