Additional Notes
The site is isolated and not connected to a settlement. Although it is located close to the urban confines of Hartley, the existing access is onto Valley Road to the west and it is not possible to see how the site could be integrated into Hartley. The site is identified in the Open Spaces Study as an outdoor sports facility which forms an important part of the green infrastructure network. The loss of this use is not supported and would need to be clearly demonstrated. Overall the site is considered unsuitable for this scale of development given its rural location, encroachment into the countryside, and loss of sports facilities.

What is Brownfield Land?
Brownfield land is previously developed land that may be available for redevelopment. The government prioritises brownfield development over greenfield sites to protect countryside and make efficient use of existing infrastructure. Local authorities maintain Brownfield Land Registers to identify suitable sites for housing.
