In encouraging the use of previously developed land, this Policy Direction aligns with national policy, with Paragraph 124 emphasing that as much use as possible should be made of brownfield sites. However, as discussed above, the Urban Capacity Study has already established that there is insufficient brownfield land available within settlements to meet South Warwickshire’s development needs. Whilst there are other brownfield sites located elsewhere in Stratford and Warwick, outside of settlement boundaries, the Urban Capacity Study is still clear that “significant greenfield development” (including Green Belt) will be needed. It should be recognised that the use of both brownfield and greenfield sites will be required in order to meet South Warwickshire’s development needs.
