Asiant : Marrons

In terms of overall score Site 506 scored well, with 34.70 being one of the lowest scoring when compared to sites of similar quantum in the SGL. The Site is relatively unconstrained, with those known constraints being manageable and mitigatable through the course of developing an appropriate proposal. This includes the part of the Site which adjoins the River Dene, where flood risk can be effectively managed such that it would not impact the development. Safe and suitable access from Kineton Road is achievable, and the Site presents opportunity for a logical, well-planned extension to Wellesbourne, am intrinsically sustainable location.

Bellway recognises that not all sites adjoining small settlements may be considered necessary for inclusion within the Plan. Land at Tuckwell Close scored lower than average on Part B of the HELAA. It is noted that the HELAA did not account for factors which materially improve the sustainability such as the strong public transport links to the centre of Southam, and Stockton itself is well-serviced by many of the amenities required for day-to-day living, which promotes active transport, and that there is a demand for affordable housing in the village, which would be provided as part of a planning application.

Cala as site promoter support the inclusion of site 347. However, the whole site should be included within the spatial growth priority area as the B455 Fosse Way is a clear boundary to the site and the settlement. The HELAA B score should be revised accordingly. Cala seeks clarification as to how part of the site has been assessed as subject to flood risk and does not agree blanket allocation of points reflects the development potential of sites. The site is affected in a very minor way which could be accommodated through layout without any impact on development potential. The whole site has been evaluated for landscape sensitivity but the site forms two clear parcels. The north could be used for residential development while the south could be used for other community benefits.

I object to the proposed housing development on site ID 55. The site is in Green Belt. The NPPF permits development only in exceptional circumstances. There are many single-lane sections of roads in Hampton-on-the-Hill or where vehicles park on one side. There are already issues with congestion, delays, and accidents. Local roads are used as a shortcut by those avoiding congestion on the A46 or accessing Warwick Parkway. Narrow winding lanes cannot be improved due to their rural nature and likely environmental impacts. Following recent housing developments there have been issues with water outages. Grey water issues and drains blocking lead to flooding of local roads. Systems need to be upgraded before development, not after.

Real Christmas Trees Limited own land east of the A3400 Stratford Road, site HOH3 in the Green Belt Study and part of SG24. They support allocation of this site. Hockley Heath is a sustainable location as per the NPPF because of good access to strategic local and transport, a good range of local services, excellent public/social infrastructure, and substantial local employment opportunities. Growth will utilise and sustain existing infrastructure and provide much-needed affordable and CSB housing in a sustainable location.

This site is the best opportunity for sustainable growth around Hockley Heath as it will protect existing separation between Hockley Heath and Dorridge. It is well-contained visually with strong and defensible boundaries defined by existing roads and the canal. The owners have commissioned landscape and transport studies. The initial landscape assessment suggests the site's contribution to Greenbelt form and function is weaker than suggested by Arup's high-level assessment. The transport assessment shows up to 500 dwellings can be accessed safely and sustainably. The land is in a single ownership. The owners have a portfolio of sites so the land is not essential for continuing business operations. The site is deliverable and can make an early contribution to housing needs.

Inclusion of SG17 and specifically site 507 is supported. The location is highly-sustainable and well-connected. The scores for Greenfield Land and Land Quality are common to most sites. Applying planning judgement to scores for SW Flooding, Landscape Sensitivity, Connectivity and Access to Local Services shows it is extremely well-located.

The site should be scored 0 for surface water flooding. The 4% subject to surface water flooding could be used for public open space or biodiversity. This is not significant to the whole site's development potential so the weighting is excessive.

The site should be scored 0 for landscape sensitivity. A Landscape Summary Note has been prepared showing a landscape-led approach could assimilate the site into its local setting.

The Connectivity Grade (D) is misleading. Access to Darlingscote Rd and Tileman’s Lane is convenient for town centre access, and settlements north and south can be accessed to the west via the A429. There is access to the town centre and out of town employment and services destinations. This is superior to sites south of Shipston with a higher need to travel through the town. The edge-of-town location is well-located for drivers; it is alsoy well-connected by public transport and pedestrian routes.

The nearest existing bus stops are on Tilemans Lane approximately 370m from the centre of the site. The eastbound stop is served by bus services 50, 51 and 75A. The westbound stop is served by bus services 51, 75A and 75C. The nearest railway station is in Moreton-in-Marsh, approximately 11km south of the site on existing roads and footways. This provides services to Worcester Shrub Hill and Oxford. The number 51 bus service from Stratford-upon-Avon stops adjacent to Moreton-in-Marsh Station enabling access to numerous destinations without car usage. Stratford-upon-Avon Railway Station is approximately 18km north of the site. This provides services to Solihull and Birmingham. National Cycle Route (NCR) 5 is located south of the site on Darlingscote Road and routes northwest towards Birmingham and east to Banbury. In Shipston-on-Stour the route is traffic free. To the east of Shipton-on-Stour NCR 5 connects to NCR 48 on Fell Mill Lane. NCR 48 is open in section and routes north towards Southam and south to Moreton-in-Marsh. The score for connectivity should be 0.

The site is connected to a variety of existing local amenities and facilities less than 2km from the site, including bus stops, primary and secondary schools, a nursery, doctors surgery, pharmacy, food retail, post office, library, leisure facility, and Shipston Business Village.

The site is located within the geographic middle super output area (MSOA) of Stratford-upon-Avon 015. The modal split for this area is summarised below:

Train 2%
Bus, Minibus or Coach 2%
Taxi 0%
Motorcycle, Scooter or Moped 0%
Driving a Car or Van 77%
Passenger in a Car or Van 5%
Bicycle 1%
On Foot 11%
Other Method of Travel to Work 1%

Shipston, Stratford-upon Avon, Warwick and JLR at Gaydon all offer vast employment areas covering all sectors which can be readily accessed by cycling, bus or car.

Residential development would likely increase demand for education with resulting trips to access local schools. These will overlap with the network AM peak hour. As shown by the 2023 National Travel Survey, pupils are over three times more likely to travel to primary school by car if their journey is 1.6 to 3.2 km compared to those whose journey is under 1.6 km. Nationally, the average journey length for education trip purpose is 3.0 km. A similar relationship is apparent for secondary school pupils although they are more likely to take the bus than be driven for long journey lengths.

The nearest primary school is Shipston Primary School, approximately 520m away on Station Road. The door-to-door walking distance is well within the national average. The nearest secondary school is Shipston High School which is located approximately 830m away on Tudor Road. The distance to the secondary school is within the national average. A large proportion of primary and secondary pupils are therefore likely to walk.

The Shipston Town Centre is approximately 1km south, with numerous shops offering a range of goods. There is a Co-operative Food, Morrisons Daily, Tesco Express and Shipton-on-Stour Post Office in the town centre.

Shipston Medical Centre is approximately 700m southeast on Donnington Road. The nearest pharmacy is Pharmacy To My Door, approximately 650m south of the site. Boots Pharmacy is located in the town centre. The score for Healthcare should be 0.

A Preliminary Ecological Appraisal has been prepared which establishes the existing ecological and biodiversity value on the site and indicates the proposal is unlikely to have significant effects on priority habitats. The PEA concludes any protected species habitats will be of site level importance only. The existence of, and potential impacts on species habitats will be assessed through further survey work when the season commences. The Baseline Habitat Value score should be 0.

An Agricultural Land Quality Assessment is being carried out and will be submitted before the end of March 2025, to confirm that this relatively small land parcel does not fall within land considered to be Best and Most Versatile. The score for Agricultural Land Quality should be 0.

I object to the proposed housing developments on the land at Grange Farm Budbrooke (ID621). I have significant concerns regarding the impacts of this development, particularly with respect to its Green Belt location and the capacity of the local road network and infrastructure, which are already under considerable strain.

Several sections of the roads in Hampton-on-the-Hill are single-lane, particularly where vehicles are parked along one side. This limitation causes frequent congestion, delays, and an increased risk of accidents. With the additional traffic generated by the new housing these issues will worsen, leading to further congestion, heightened road rage incidents (which already occur), and an overall decline in road safety.

Many local roads are already used as a shortcut/rat-run by drivers attempting to avoid congestion on the A46 (Particularly area around Stank’s Island/ Longbridge Island and Birmingham Road, which can then lead to traffic backing up on the A46, making the situation even worse) or access Warwick Parkway or the Birmingham Road at the Shell garage. The addition of new homes in this area will significantly increase through-traffic, exacerbating congestion and creating further safety risks for both residents and road users.
