The Stratford-on-Avon Core Strategy includes a number of Special Landscape Area (SLA) designations. The Ironstone Hills Fringe SLA is consistent with and contiguous to similar SLA designations in West Northamptonshire which have been confirmed in the relatively recently adopted Part 2 Local Plans for Daventry and South Northamptonshire. Landscape evidence commissioned for the new Local Plan for West Northamptonshire has confirmed the appropriateness of these designations. The continuation and potential extension of SLA designations to cover Warwick District would be supported by West Northamptonshire Council. Discussions have taken place over recent years between Stratford on Avon District Council and our predecessor councils regarding the potential designation of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for the Northamptonshire Ironstone Uplands. This culminated in an expression of interest being submitted to Natural England and whilst this is not currently being taken forward the potential remains for this to be considered further in the future.
