On no account must these villages be removed from the Green Belt. No "exceptional circumstances" have been demonstrated which would justify building on what is currently Green Belt. There seems to be a presumption that if a Green Belt designation inconveniently gets in the way of development, all that is needed is to move the boundary so as to re-designate a parcel of land for development. This flies in the face of the Green Belt concept, and is the start of a slippery slope!
Hampton Magna already has an overloaded infrastructure, and cannot support any further development. It is surrounded by agricultural land which has never been developed, and which is very distinct from the ex-barracks site on which the village was built. The boundaries should stay where they are!
