1,000 units identified to village locations are considered to be unreasonably low -only 15.1% of the total housing provision.

Warwick is a largely rural District with a significant number of villages and hamlets and the quantum of housing to be delivered to these locations in order to underpin the sustainability and viability of these villages and to meet housing need in the location in which it arises is not considered sufficient and should be increased.

The housing figure is suspiciously rounded which could indicate it is arbitrary rather than having been derived on the basis of a sustainability critique and capacity assessment of each of the villages in the District.

Locations such as Hampton Magna should therefore see increased housing given their sustainability credentials and the need to underpin their sustainability and viability.
