Green Belt Study
Sprawl - The site is enveloped by existed built features on three sides and would serve to consolidate and round-off the existing settlement edge. An existing substation adjacent to the western boundary represents an existing urbanising feature. It is suggested site makes a ‘moderate’ contribution to checking unrestricted sprawl.
Safeguarding - The site is strongly influenced by existing urbanised features and has durable defensible boundaries. Site development would present opportunity to further strengthen these boundaries. Therefore considered that the site makes a ‘moderate’ contribution to assisting safeguarding from encroachment.
Regeneration - Site does not contain significant brownfield areas and would therefore not prejudice the redevelopment of urban land. Therefore it is considered that the site makes a moderate contribution to this purpose.
In conclusion it is suggested that the Green Belt assessment harm rating be reduced to ‘low-moderate’.
