This area is within the established Green Belt and provides a recreational area for the Tipps Cross residents and is adjacent to Tipps Cross Remembrance Hall. THE LDP defines it incorrectly as 'small village infill' and 'connecting to the existing Doddinghurst urban area'. It is the only public recreation land in Tipps Cross. The proposed development of 10 houses is a highly unsuitable over development of the site. The adjoining hall needs the recreational area for the hall to be sustainable as a venue.
This area is within the established green belt. The LDP incorrectly defines this plot as 'small village infill' and incorrectly as being connected to the Doddinghurst urban area.
We need to preserve our greenbelt areas.The intention of the Greenbelt legislation is to permanently provide and protect open space, a concept endorsed by Teresa May in her recent speech where she promised to protect the green belt
