More than 100 people living in Dersingham, near King's Lynn, took part in a survey carried out by the parish council.

The consultation in late November was the first step in the process of creating a neighbourhood plan which will govern future development.

Results just published show people feel Dersingham is special because it is friendly, safe and surrounded by nature.
