It is noted that with Options NLR1, NLR2, NLR4 & NLR5 part of the site lies within Flood Zone 3.
The sequential test of PPS25 seeks to direct development to areas at least risk of flooding (Zones 1 & 2). As such land in Zones 1 & 2 should be considered prior to considering residential development on land within Zone 3.
In addition, Options NLR1, & NLR2 would also project a considerable distance from the existing settlement into the Green Belt; as such it would be difficult to create a defensible boundary, contrary to PPG2.
