Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Bellway’s site (Site ID 466/471) is located within the proposed SGL SG19. As stated in our separate responses, Bellway strongly support the proposed allocation of their land. Reference to two site ID’s is included as Bellway’s land has been assessed as the eastern half of site ID 471 (c.4ha) (Land North of Loxley Road, Stratford upon Avon) and the eastern part of a wider parcel, site ID 466 (c.16.73ha) (Land at Knights Lane, Loxley Road and Pimlico Lane, Stratford upon Avon).
Site ID 466 scored 34.40 overall and Site ID 471 scored 33.30 overall. Across all sites assessed in Part B, the median score was 45. We note a lower score is considered better and therefore Site ID 466/471 score reflects a very positive assessment and is better performing than the majority of sites assessed in the HELAA.
In the ‘Settlement Design Analysis’ (January 2023), Site ID 466 has also been given a ‘connectivity grade’ of ‘B’ which is good connectivity. The SWLP evidence base therefore recognise that the Site ID 466/471 is in a sustainable and accessible location.
Site ID 466/471 is located on the edge of the largest and most sustainable settlement in the District which offers a wide range of services and facilities and is served by public transport. The Site is also not located within the Green Belt or restricted in terms of any landscape or ecological designations. Site ID 466/471 also offers the opportunity for housing delivery in the short term as it is in single ownership and being promoted by a housebuilder.
In light of the above, Site ID 466/471 should remain as a proposed residential allocation within the SWLP.
