This land has great recreational value to the local community. It is enjoyed by many runners, riders, walkers and cyclists. It is also prime food producing agricultural land which once destroyed can never be replaced. According to the NPPF the fundamental aim of Green Belt is to prevent urban sprawl by keeping land permanently open. The Green Belt in Old Milverton and Blackdown fufils the 5 purposes of Green Belt set out in the NPPF. There are other non Green Belt sites to the South that could be developed, from the 2009 Core Strategy, with existing employment opportunities and infrastructure.
