Greenfield site promoted through the local plan to allocation
Shown to demonstrate the shape a real case study should take. A 42-acre arable field adjoining a market town had no allocation and a local plan under review. The district could not demonstrate a five-year housing land supply, which was the lever — the site was promoted through the plan-making process on that basis, allocated for 180 homes, and sold on the open market to the highest of four bidders once outline consent was secured.
