As set out within this representation and its appendices, the land at Hazel Beck would be a wholly appropriate site for sympathetic residential development with appropriate ecological mitigation possible.

The site specific Green Belt assessment for the proposed allocation at Marchcote Lane identifies that it
has a ‘moderate potential impact’ on the Green Belt whereas we identify the land at hazel Beck as having
only a very weak contribution to the purposed of the Green Belt as set out within national Policy, the land
at Hazel Beck is therefore sequentially preferable in terms of Green Belt impact.

Recommendation 13: The Housing allocation at CO1/H should be included as part of the housing delivery
strategy for Cottingley however in order to meet the needs of the District it is essential that additional sites
are allocated in the local vicinity. We strongly recommend the allocation of the land at Hazel Beck (CO/006) as an appropriate and deliverable site for residential development.
