The assumption that all the urban brownfield sites, along with the small SHLAA sites, will yield 1,330 units with no allowance for non-implementation or slippage is
questionable.

To reflect the uncertainties connected to the deliverability of a number of the urban brownfield sites, Barwood recommends that a 10% reduction is applied to the number of dwellings which could be delivered on urban brownfield sites.

Further to the removal of both The Asps and Land South of Gallows Hill from the Local Plan, the Council has produced two draft evidence base documents entitled 'The Setting of Heritage Assets', one of which relates to The Asps and one related to Land South of Gallows Hill. Both documents are stated to be in draft and, to our knowledge, have not been subject to consultation or scrutiny.

Barwood's consultant team have previously, in our response to the Revised Development Strategy, provided a detailed and thorough response to the RMA work and English Heritage's commentary. The soundly based technical Heritage Setting Assessment prepared by EDP and submitted in support of The Asps planning application demonstrates the suitability of The Asps to accommodate a significant amount of development with (following mitigation) no harmful impacts on the landscape which is adjacent to it, or indeed to the historic setting of the town, the Castle Park and other relevant heritage assets.
