Respondent: RPS Planning & Development

We consider it may be more appropriate to identify 'previously developed sites' in the Green Belt where limited infilling would be acceptable, to replace the 'major developed sites'. On this basis, we suggest that the Local Plan should have a policy which identifies the key previously developed sites, including the main developed part of the Hatton Estate (the Farm Village and Shopping Village), in the same way as current Local Plan policy SSP2 identified Major Developed Sites in the Green Belt. This provision should be incorporated into policy PO16 in the same way that it identifies villages removed from the Green Belt. The boundary shown in Figure 1 should be used to identify the site in the Local Plan.
