Surface water flood risk has been removed.

Site is poor quality grazing land.

Northern boundary to the new houses comprises a wooden post/rail fence, and gabions.

Green Belt Assessment does recognise that a combination of Marsh Lane/Moorhouse Lane will be more compliant with the NPPF than a wooden post/rail fence.

The boundary proposed, two public highways are permanent and obviously defensible.

Green Belt Assessment is contradictory purpose 4, on page 2 the contribution is assessed as “major" yet the summary, which in this respect is agreed concludes that it is Low.

Site would represent a reasonably logical rounding off the settlement.

The site is seen in the context of recent development to the south and a ribbon of development fronting Marsh Lane to the west.

Landscape impact, site has no greater impact than some other allocations.

Could be delivered now for self-build, parties have already approached the landowner expressing self-build interest.

Contribution to 5 year supply.
