Respondent: Menston Parish Council

Although allocation of Site ME1/H may appear reasonable in a desktop exercise, it lies within in the green belt and consists of a north-facing steep hillside, within 2.5km of the South Pennine Moors, currently being used for sheep farming, overlooking the village and it’s development would overshadow the existing settlements lower down the hillside particularly in Hargrave Crescent and Derry Lane as well as impacting on the SSSI and SPA. It conflicts with Policy SP9 Climate Change, Environmental Sustainability and Resource Use.
