Representation Summary:

The site-specific text summarises the Sustainability Appraisal assessment, which refers to the predicted effects including adverse effects relating to cultural heritage and positive effects for most socio-economic themed objectives and those relating to the location of the site in terms of proximity to transport links and services and facilities.

It is recognised that there are heritage considerations with the development of this site, due to the proximity of the site to the setting of Whinburn Lodge and gardens, and yet the site is included as a preferred allocation. We are confident that any heritage constraint can be factored in to the design of a deliverable scheme. It is noted that the Council’s Heritage Impact Statement for this site refers to the mitigation measures and opportunities to enhance the significance, which refers to strengthening the landscaped/ tree boundary along the north western and south-western boundaries of the site and retaining / rebuilding the dry-stone boundary walls.
