The policy relating to large scale development sites to include a requirement for developers to provide pitches and plots on those sites. This is a sensible way of overcoming local resistance in that, if the pitches/plots are developed at the same time as the large scale development then there would be no established residents to object. There is also likely to be much better infrastructure than is the case in small rural plots.

Where BUABs have been agreed with SDC as part of a Parish Plan then those agreed boundaries should stand. Many small villages were advised not to tackle the huge task of working up a Neighbourhood Plan but instead to draw up a Parish Plan. These Parish Plans are scrutinised and adopted by SDC and we expect them to be taken into account in the SWLP. We urge great caution in considering small scale development on unallocated sites in non-green belt locations, particularly if the site in question is adjacent to a BUAB.

You need to be absolutely sure that settlements in priority area 3, especially the small villages, can sustain development.
In 4.3 you consider whether there should be a revised settlement hierarchy . This may be a very good idea if we are to have genuine sustainability in Priority 3 areas.

Of the four sites within Pillerton Priors, we object to three of them as they are out of the BUAB. Any development within the village will have a negative impact to Pillerton Priors and neighbouring villages.
