Representation Summary:

We wish to object that Blackmore has been classed as a larger village meaning the Borough would consider it offers the most scope for development. Although we have a small primary school, there are very limited number of shops (definitely not a parade), no health facilities and public transport is very poor. The facilities are very limited and would not be sufficient to cater for the any large development. We would therefore consider Blackmore should be in settlement category 4 2.16 Smaller Villages.

CP10 Greenbelt
We strongly object to Blackmore being excluded from the Greenbelt as we feel it is a perfect example of an unspoilt rural village that should be protected as stated in section 3.37
