Development should not be allowed in the area, and the caveats should be removed (such as that ‘unless there would be an over-riding benefit, for instance to meet an evidenced local housing need’). The Local Plan should be allocating suitable land for housing need.

Definition is required of what constitutes ‘major’ development as it should be proportional to the size of the settlement where the development is proposed (eg a 100 dwelling development on the edge of say Stratford-upon-Avon won’t have as large a visual impact as say a 20 dwelling development on the edge of a small village). Furthermore, the visual assessment needs to take into account the wider visual context of where the existing settlement is (eg is it in a bowl) and the impact that the proposed development will have on the wider area (ie will it encroach on the skyline).

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

We acknowledge the policy direction in Policy 48, aiming to protect landscape settings and significant features. Our land interests at Aylesbury Road lie within the Warwickshire Green Belt and are not subject to other landscape designations, but a Public Right of Way crosses the site. The area is characterised by small fields and mature hedgerow trees. Established tree belts provide screening, and the site is relatively level and enclosed. A commissioned Grey Belt Assessment suggests that the proposed development would be sympathetic to the local character and limit visible impacts, except for views from a specific Public Right of Way.

Landscape impact is just one of many matters that needs to be considered as part of the determination process. The draft wording of the policy Direction 48 would appear to elevate the importance of landscape harm beyond other considerations.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

This Policy Direction is not sufficiently stringent, as SG24 appears to propose to construct infrastructure over an area of landscape which would be fundamentally harmed by such construction. This is particularly applicable in the SG24 area between Stratford Road, Aylesbury Road, Box Trees Road, and Grange Road, where the proposed development site would result in coalesence between Hockley Heath and Dorridge, via the sites proposed in the Solihull local plan which are immediately adjacent. Additionally, the Solihull Plan is very clear that Hockley Heath is only suitable for small scale development, which SG24 is not.

Salford Priors as a rural parish prioritizes protecting the landscape by ensuring development respects local character, heritage, and tranquillity. Proposals must avoid landscape harm, with refusal being the default unless an evidenced local housing need justifies it. High-quality landscaping is required to mitigate impacts, prevent coalescence, and enhance amenity. Major developments may require Landscape Visual Impact Assessments, and a minimum five-year maintenance plan should be explored. The NPPF (paras. 135 & 187) supports visually attractive, well-integrated designs that protect valued landscapes and biodiversity. Evidence should be gathered to ensure future development remains appropriate, sensitive, and sustainable.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The caveat "unless there would be an over-riding benefit, for instance to meet an evidenced local housing need" renders the policy meaningless. It is likely that local housing need can always be evidenced, so a meaningful Local Plan should always protect landscape character and allocate suitable land for housing need. You have to call a halt somewhere.

Dunsmore & Feldon Area 96) was completely omitted from material prepared by external consultants on behalf of SWLP to be used as evidence in the development of the SWLP. This compromises the evidence and the subsequent statements made in the HELLA, for example. Considering that such consultancy is funded by public monies, then serious questions need to be asked and conclusions re-evaluated.
