Contravenes PPS1 - give protection to wider countryside and take account of impact of development on landscape quality, conservation and enhancement of wildlife species and habitats and promotion of biodiversity.
Contravenes PPS7 - include criteria-based policies to protect locally valued landscapes, supported by landscape character assessments: as the landscape character assessments are poorly completed. Landscape occupied by Lower Heathcote Farm, between Harbury Lane and the Tach Brook, is naturally beautiful. Even so, the Landscape report states that as farmland too it has a high value; categorized as second highest grade of farmland. Too much valuable farmland proposed for development.
Contravenes Regional Planning Policy - conserve, enhance and restore quality, diversity and distinctiveness of the landscape character.
