More thought needed as to where housing should go relative to employment. Areas should be properly assessed before development allowed. This area should not be developed as will lead to merging of settlements which goes against planning rules. It should be removed from the plan.

Doesn’t conform to NPPF for green belt. Dog Kennel Lane is a strong boundary, new build suggests a road is put in - will encourage further development. Inconsistency in green belt classification - moderate in latest, high 2016. Lack of background studies on flooding, traffic and other infrastructure; left to developers at planning stage. Flood risk downstream will increase. Remote from employment plus new school will cause traffic to increase. Amount of development in this part of borough is excessive - over 1,000 properties approved in recent years in Cheswick Green Parish. No guarantee heritage will be protected.
