Omission Site 338 should be allocated for 100-130 dwellings. This site is supported by technical reports and being in one ownership without major infrastructure requirements, there would be no uncertainty about its delivery unlike the allocated sites. Sites that are better performing than Site 338 in the Green Belt Assessment have been allocated. Although higher performing, recent development in this part of the Green Belt parcel means it is likely to perform more moderately. Site is accessible, is surrounded on three sides by development with a defensible Green Belt boundary to the south that is more substantial than that for Site BC3 and does not extend further into the countryside than the existing settlement. There are no landscape, heritage or ecology issues.
Site 338 at Harpers Field, Kenilworth Road, Balsall Common should be included in the table of residential allocations at paragraph 226.
