Representation Summary:

PO11 Historic Environment states:
"Protect the historic environment from inappropriate development, by:
Including policies which protect Scheduled ancient monuments, Listed Buildings, Conservation Areas, Historic Parks and Gardens and locally designated assets."
The proposed site South of Gallows Hill/The Asps is introducing development that is inappropriate and does nothing to protect the historic environment for the reasons already outlined above. This is clearly illustrated on the map asttached, an extract from the 1813 Ordnance Surveyor's drawing of Warwickshire, on which is superimposed the proposed area in question. This map shows the completed park with urban development to the north and agricultural land on the other three sides. Although there has been subsequent development in the vicinity of Warwick, agricultural or open land still comprises the major part of the setting of the park. This would be significantly damaged by the present proposals.
