Representation Summary:

This location is for housing in the Green Belt. This is not justified and not in accordance with national planning policy. Need for housing will rarely be sufficient to constitute the very special circumstances required for inappropriate development in the Green Belt. Taken together, development of the H27 and H51 plots for housing would represent a huge extension of the village into Green Belt and open countryside to the south and east, and undermine the gap between Hampton Magna and Warwick which remains important visually, and effective. Hampton Magna was development vas a previously-developed site in the Green Belt, being the old Warwickshire Regiment Hampton Barracks, 50 years ago. It was not allowed to spread onto open land then. No extension should be allowed now.
