Hockley Heath should be a settlement where limited and proportionate development is accepted. New development will assist with the future viability and vitality of Hockley Heath provided development is proportionate to the settlement and in the right location. However, it is considered that the site on land off Stratford Road Hockley Heath submitted as part of the Solihull DLP 2016 consultation (site 121) is
located in a more central location within the settlement and exhibits equal if
not better credentials in respect of Green Belt, accessibility, landscape and
deliverability than Site 25 Land off School Road Hockley Heath
This is the response of Rosconn Strategic Land to the supplementary consultation by
Solihull Council on the Solihull Draft Local Plan January 2019. The purpose of the
response is to comment the draft Plan and promote three sites for inclusion as
housing allocations within the plan. The response is by question order.
The 3 sites are:
Land at Three Maypoles Farm Shirley
Land at r/o 2214 Stratford Road Hockley Heath
Land adj 161 Lugtrout Lane Solihull
The responses on the three sites to the Solihull Draft Local Plan 2016 consultation
are attached and which highlight the reasons why the sites should be allocations
within the Local Plan.
This document should also be read in conjunction with the Ecology Report and
Heritage Assessment in relation to land adj to 161 Lugtrout Lane, Solihull.
Your attention is also drawn to the attached Masterplan for land r/o 2214 Stratford
Road Hockley Heath.
Not withstanding that this is an informal consultation we consider that the document
should be accompanied by an up to date SA.
