AD2/H Parsons Lane – This is a green field site, but with relatively low biodiversity value. It is a grazed grassland paddock in poor condition. As above it is acceptable as a housing site, subject to an ecological survey to identify any biodiversity concerns and mitigate potential impacts. The mature boundary trees and drystone walls should be retained.
Its distance from the village centre will be a deterrent for walking and cycling but as Parish Council-owned land it presents an excellent opportunity to build affordable houses.
