Definitive Footpath Tong 8 forms a link from the Bierley - Birkenshaw area via Path Tong 1 to the Black Carr - Scholebrook public footpath network in the "rejected" land category. A major development would have significant effect on the views from the path towards Kit Wood and Fulneck.
If however the proposed allocation is fully or partially accepted it should be conditional upon retention of the path, segregated from roads, with some improvement to its surface whilst maintaining as much open aspect rural view as possible. The path and an enhancement of Kit Wood beck would add to the Green Belt boundary to the north and sports recreation area to the west.
