Site BC6 is unsuitable as an allocation, as it contradicts the assessment criteria. Site is completely divorced from the settlement with no link or appropriate setting, is within the highest performing Green Belt in the Green Belt Assessment, whilst the Landscape Character Assessment identifies that the site has medium visual sensitivity. A narrow belt between 2 highly used railway lines is unsuitable due to noise, vibration and visual sensitivity. Site breaches firm and defensible Green Belt boundary as applied to other sites in the settlement.
