FURIOUS residents in a historic market town fear Prince William's plan to build nearly 2,500 new homes will "radically alter" the area.
Ray Backler, 71, said: "I think that it's not well thought out - especially given that King Stephen is buried in the middle of Faversham! It will deliver "affordable homes designed and built to the same high-quality standards, indistinguishable from market homes", according to a website for the development.But local Helen Neaves, 60, said: "I'm generally quite stressed about the amount of building around Faversham.
A masterplan was submitted last December, seeking consent for an initial 261 homes on the site, as well as a local centre with shops along with community and business spaces.
