H11 infers deemed consent for infill developments which are located within a Limited Infill Village and comply with the three specified criteria.
The appropriateness of the development should also be assessed in terms of potemtial harm being caused to the green belt and this should be the over-riding consideration.

If all villages in the district, i.e. those within or outside the green belt, there would be less pressure on the growth villages thus reducing the negative impact on these.

The policy is too restrictive. By restricting new development, the opportunity will be missed to allow villages and their services to remain viable. Without a critical mass, local bus and rail services will be at risk of closure or cuts to services.

This policy is too restrictive as the specified boundaries for infill essentially trace the built up area of the settlements, leaving no available land within the boundary for infill development. This is not consistent with the strategy set out in the Local Plan.
Policy H11 seeks to limit any infilling to two dwellings, which we believe is far too restrictive and is effectively limiting benefits that could be delivered through new development in the village. In relation to Hatton Station, it could prevent development that could itself provide facilities that are not currently available and could have a potential impact on the viability of the station.
Policy H11 is considered to be unsound as it fails the tests in respect to being positively prepared, justified, effective and consistent with national policy.

The process of identifying Primary and Secondary Service Villages, has failed to examine in any objective depth whether other limited infill villages might benefit from modest further development.
Within Rowington Green a further limited amount of residential development - beyond the suggested one or two dwellings set out in the policy - would meet the wider identified needs of the community.
The strong locational synergy between Kingswood and Rowington would mean that release of this site at Rowington Green would either take the place of at least one of the sites identified at Kingswood to fulfil the number of dwellings required in that settlement (100-150) of which sites for only 62 were originally designated, now reduced to 43, or contribute additional housing to the total provision being sought by the Council in rural areas.
The Rowington Parish Plan 2009 for example recognised in its guiding principles the need to ensure the continuation and regeneration of the Parish by having a broad range of accommodation including for the elderly, single or young families looking for either smaller or affordable
accommodation. This need was seen as enabling a limited number of younger people to move into the Parish to provide new blood in the community.

require any development at these allocations to not adversely affect the integrity of the waterway structure, quality of the water, result in unauthorised discharges and run off or encroachment; detrimentally affect the landscape, heritage, ecological quality and character of the waterways; prevent the waterways potential for being fully unlocked or discourage the use of the waterway network. We would seek for any development to relate appropriately to the waterway and optimise the benefits such a location can generate for all parts of the community

Policy H11 as written is sound and is established Policy for Green Belt, as earlier set out in PPG2. It allows new houses in washed-over settlements under very strict controls. These are well set-out in the Policy.
Paragraphs 4.77-4.79 are also sound and in accordance with national Green Belt policy.
The policy makes no reference to the village boundaries identified on the policy map. The boundaries do nothing to assist the implementation of Policy H11 and would be likely to harm it by increasing applications which then need to be refused under the terms of the Policy itself.
The NPPF gives no support to showing 'village infill boundaries' for washed-over settlements in the Green Belt.
Village infill boundaries are shown for some small villages outside the Green Belt. These should also be deleted.

As drafted, policy is unecessarily restrictive and inflexible and as a result the Plan will not deliver level of windfalls required. Plan therefore ineffective/unsound.
No sound justification for artificially limiting scale of development to 2 dwgs as proposed by criterion a). Larger infill and other small scale schemes should be capable of consideration on site-by-site basis without harm to character of village/Green Belt.
Stoneleigh not solely linear with examples of development behind main road frontages. Requirement in cirterion c) therefore inappropriate for Stoneleigh. Development could take place on land which does not front public hgihway without harming character of village/Green Belt
Criterion c) redundant in that impact of proposed development is to be considered under other Plan policies

Support thrust of H11 but there is no robust empirical evidence to restrict the scale to no more than 2 dwellings. Likewise the definition of infill development, being too narrow.
Para. 89 of the framework identifies specific exceptions where new development is appropriate within the Green Belt; limited infilling in villages being one such exception. As presently drafted the policy does not embrace the sustainability ethos set out within the framework at paras. 14, 151, 187 and is therefore unsound, not positively prepared or justified.
To contribute to the present and future economic environmental and social sustainability of villages, especially those washed over by Green Belt, provisions for new housing should be allowed where the scale and nature of the development does not result in significant or demonstrable adverse impacts

The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) requires 'exceptional circumstances' to allow development in the Green Belt. With regard to the proposed housing development site at Hatton Park, no such special circumstances exist. This is proven by the very recent Housing Needs Survey conducted by the Parish Council and the Warwickshire Rural Communities Council which returned a need for a maximum of 12 homes which could be accommodated by village infill or already identified brown field sites within the parish. The Hatton Parish Plan (2013) also documents major opposition to development in the parish.
