We welcome the inclusion of the Golf Lane/Fieldgate Lane site as an allocated housing site as set out by PO4. It will play a key role in achieving the plan's objectives, being significant in size but small enough to be delivered without the need for costly infrastructure works. It should, however, be noted that the site is 4 hectares in size, is unconstrained and is therefore more likely to have a development capacity in the region of 100-110 units (allowing for some on-site public open space and landscaping) rather than 90 units as set out in the associated table.
