Future Breckland is a report exploring how the area can thrive in the future. The idea of places being socially constructed is important. All places need plans, but it's interesting to see who is included, or excluded from those plans, and who feels they have any agency in how their local area will change in the short to medium term.
The blurb says:
This year-long-project is designed to be a significant undertaking, helping Breckland bounce back from the challenges of COVID-19 and build a strong and sustainable economy for the future.I live a few miles from two of the towns mentioned here: Dereham and Swaffham, so am particularly interested in the plans for those locations.
There will likely be something similar in your own home area.
These form a good basis for student investigations and can also help provide ideas for fieldwork.
