Grade Two agricultural land to the south west and the Sandstone Trail and Peckforton Hills to the east. Any areas which are marked as grade 2 or 3 farmland on the Natural England map (and which therefore may be BMV – see our response to SS20) should be subject to detailed site survey (i.e. not just desk-based) carried out in accordance with Natural England guidance to inform any decisions about future development.

Green Belt – and the allocated sites would almost connect up with and double the size of Weaverham.

Green Belt and also the North Cheshire Way cuts through the site. Any areas which are marked as grade 2 or 3 farmland on the Natural England map (and which therefore may be BMV – see our response to SS20) should be subject to detailed site survey (i.e. not just desk-based) carried out in accordance with Natural England guidance to inform any decisions about future development.

Delamere station is in Green Belt and, even more importantly, it is situated in the heart of Delamere Forest, Cheshire’s largest woodland. The area around it should not be compromised with inappropriate development.

Green Belt should not be built on and the rural setting of this award-winning station should not be compromised. This is the least sustainable of all the development proposals based around rural rail stations. Apart from which, it would undoubtedly compromise the attractiveness of the area and therefore affect the tourist economy.
