Land north of the A46, Stratford-upon-Avon forms part of the ‘West of Stratford-upon Avon Group’ Strategic Growth Location and it is entirely within Priority Area 1, highlighting that growth here would accord with the spatial strategy in the most preferential of locations in this respect. It has been assessed positively in both Parts A and B in the HELAA. Furthermore, it is sustainable location for further housing, particularly when considered in isolation against the SA Framework, rather than as part of the wider Strategic Growth Location. The conclusions of the Green Belt Review mean that the Site can be considered grey belt, and is thus sequentially preferable for release and allocation, in line with Paragraph 148 of the Framework. The Site can comply with the requirements of Paragraph 155 of the NPPF as the ‘Golden Rules’ can be met, through the provision of a high proportion of affordable housing, infrastructure improvements as necessary, and new, or improved, green spaces. It is deliverable, being suitable, achievable, and available, meaning that it is able to be brought forward to meet South Warwickshire’s housing need, including for affordable homes, in the early part of the plan period. The Site could be brought forward to deliver a high-quality residential development consisting of approximately 135 dwellings, which supports and aligns with the draft vision and strategic objectives.
