Support the development of a new settlement on non-green belt land, with the space to provide a large number of houses plus additional amenities to support new residents. Rather than extending existing settlements with already overstretched, or at capacity, amenities such as schools, doctors, dentists, etc
Road infrastructure will be designed to manage the increased volume of traffic, rather than putting additional vehicles on roads in existing settlements which haven't been designed to manage the new volume.

I support a new settlement at Leamingto Spa/Whitnash because transport infrastructure is in plac. School schools in the area and accessible employment opportunities across Midlands via road and rail network. Leamington has a number of national "headquarters" attracting workers and consumers boosting the economy and local businesses.

Site X2, covering 324 hectares, could accommodate 6,480 homes but faces major challenges. Ranked 4th in the SA, it lacks infrastructure, sustainable transport and proximity to essential services. It impacts priority habitats, heritage assets and natural resources, sitting on mineral safeguarding areas and flood-prone land. The HELAA flags multiple ownerships with no clear intent to sell, making it undevelopable under NPPF guidelines. X2 is poorly located, reliant on car travel and near over-capacity roads. Without infrastructure solutions, the SWLP risks failing soundness tests at Regulation 19. Increased traffic could cause severe congestion at key junctions, creating gridlock.

Site X2 is unsuitable for development and contradicts the SWLP’s evidence-led strategy. It lies in Growth Strategy Priority Area 3, lacks infrastructure, public transport and accessibility to employment, making it unsustainable. The HELAA flags multiple ownership issues, with only 47% of the land available, making delivery unrealistic.
X2 fails national policy tests, being in an unsustainable location with flood risks, priority habitats and significant heritage impacts, including a Scheduled Monument. It is the worst-performing site for natural resources, overlapping three Mineral Safeguarding Areas. X2 is unjustified, ineffective and inconsistent with sustainable development principles.

Whoever put X2 in the plan is obviously completely unaware that Chesterton Windmill is one of the area's favourite free visitor attractions, whose setting in the countryside is much photographed and appreciated. It is not going to look good in the middle of a housing estate. Furthermore, there is a scheduled ancient monument in X2 and the surrounding area is protected regarding Roman remains (Chesterton fort), and its landscape should also be protected. Is the "desktop planning" so poor that no-one can work that one out?!

I agree, of all the options, this one and option BW are more suitable. X2 has notably fewer habitats than say F2, F3 and G3 although small amounts of distinctive grassland. It is 4km from Leamington Spa station. Although there is no green belt around Leamington there is a high risk that this option would tend to considerably increase the sprawl of Leamington Spa and is likely become joined to Leamington over time since there is only a 1km buffer to Leamington outskirts.

Harbury Lane and the Fosseway are single carriageway roads running along the northern and eastern boundaries of this site. Harbury Lane is prone to flooding with water run off from the land immediately to the south of Harbury Lane. This flood risk would be worsened with new settlement development.
There are significant archaeological remains in the area on the land to the south of Harbury Lane and either side of the Fosse Way. It is a sensitive area.
There is currently Solar Farm construction on 234 acres on part of X2 (Chesterton Fields Farm) south east quadrant of X2.

This development will likely require treatment at Warwick - Longbridge (STW) Treatment Works, this Wastewater Treatment works has medium capacity and high environmental constraints. Due to the size of the development, it is recommended that network upgrades will be required, alongside hydraulic modelling and engagement with STW. Overall this development site is considered a medium/high risk location, there is some capacity however in order to accommodate growth, infrastructure upgrades will be required and we would need to work closely to understand build timelines, in order to plan accordingly.

A new settlement on non-green belt land should be the first consideration for development.
New Settlements are preferable to spatial growth areas, as the appropriate infrastructure and amenities will be provided, rather than adding additional volume to already over stretched existing facilities in spatial growth areas.
Development without the removal of greenbelt should be the priority.

X1, X2: Considered undevelopable due to multiple ownership issues and lack of infrastructure. Only 14% of X1 and 47% of X2 have been put forward for development, making them both unviable.
X1, X2: Fail key NPPF tests, particularly in transport accessibility, infrastructure provision, and realistic deliverability.
Conclusion:
X1 and X2 should be discounted as they fail on sustainability, deliverability, and infrastructure grounds. The Regulation 19 SWLP must provide more explicit justifications and mitigation plans to be considered sound.

X2 Land south of Whitnash west of Fosse Way: This is a a very large area of farmland, 324ha. A new settlement is not supported; see instead response on SG11 Land SE of Whitnash. The land between Harbury Lane and the railway is the 1930s Leamington Airfield and includes a scrapyard and a container storage base. It lies in the area of Whitnash Town Council. An urban extension here is possible, though not extending as far south-eastwards as the Fosse Way. Much more work is needed to examine this; one factor would be the future of the golf course.

The lack of transport accessibility and infrastructure makes this option unviable. Development on this site would present significant environmental and heritage issues which cannot be mitigated. Too much of our local natural habitats have already been lost and it would be environmentally irresponsible to lose more.

It seems to me that this would be a good location to create a new settlement, being close to other recent development in Whitnash, and being served by the Fosse Way which has had major work done in that section recently, providing good traffic management links.
Any green belt land developed can feel like a loss, and I spent much time in my childhood around here. While there would be disruptions they don't seem unacceptable.
