The site at KY36/H is on greenbelt and is there for a purpose.

Long Lee and Thwaites Brow suffer from urban creep from Keighley due to the number of developments that have occurred over the years. Once they were villages in their own right but now Long Lee and Thwaites Brow have been sucked into Keighley. Due to its proximity to the crag, there is excess water running through this site. It is also exactly opposite to another proposed site, thereby removing green space from both sides. Access is particularly difficult as it is right on the junction of Long Lee Lane and Harden Road and could cause difficulties for traffic emerging from another junction.
