1.Winterton is a village where Policy H.5 of the Norfolk Structure Plan applies. This policy states that housing development will be limited to individual dwellings or small groups of houses (a development of 5 dwellings or less can be regarded as a small group) which enhance the form and character of the village and its setting. The proposal is presently contrary to this policy in that the erection of 6 dwellings on the site would extend the existing development into open countryside away from the main core of the village and constitute a ribbon of dwellings detrimental to the form, character and setting of Winterton.
2.Although the site is designated for residential development in accordance with Policy HOU5 of the Deposit Version of the Borough-Wide Local Plan, an objection has been received to this and other such allocations in Winterton, i.e. "new smaller-scale housing developments of 10 dwellings or less". Consequently, the Borough Council considers that the proposal is premature pending the outcome of the Local Plan Inquiry.
