Regarding the appropriateness of sites, specifically Honeypot Lane:
* adds to local traffic congestion (the road is heavily used by school traffic to St Peters) which is not suitable for heavy traffic flow and does not flow well in to London Road.
* Adds to the pressure on local services with no scope for adding school/dentist/local shops.
* Impacts local character.

Honeypot Lane meets in full the SHLAA site criteria concerning suitability, availability and achievability for residential development as the Draft Site Assessment, July 2013 previously concluded. The site can contribute significantly to the housing land supply in a sustainable location in Brentwood early in the plan period as it offers:
* close proximity between jobs, homes and open spaces,
* the potential capability to be accessed by public transport, on foot and by bicycle;
* a site that is readily deliverable now and can therefore contribute to the five year housing land supply of the Borough;
* a development opportunity that would not damage the distinctive character of Brentwood, or the overriding contribution of the Green Belt to Brentwood's quality of life, biodiversity and environment, which give it its character and distinctiveness;
* the opportunity to refine and re-align the Green Belt boundary using physical features that are readily recognisable and that would continue to form a logical, long-term and defensible boundary for the urban extent of the Borough.
