Representation ID: 885
Received: 25/11/2016
Respondent: Penelope Laing
Agent: Savills
Support for SI1 on the grounds of:
- availability, deliverability and sustainability of the allocation
- visually protected from Green Belt
- well positioned within the village
- no unacceptable encroachment into countryside
- Category A village with services and facilities
- links to Hitchin
- scale is in keeping with the settlement
On behalf of the joint landowners support for the allocation and its availability is confirmed.
The site is visually protected from surrounding green belt and is well positioned within the village so as not to represent an unacceptable encroachment into countryside.
Saint Ippolyts and Gosmore is a Category A village with a range of services and facilities as well as close links to the nearby major town of Hitchin. The scale of the allocation is in keeping with the settlement and the site is both sustainable and deliverable to meet the housing needs of the plan period.
