2.12.1 Tidbury Green is located on top of a local north-south ridge line with land falling away gently from Fulford Hall Road to the east and west. Beyond Tidbury Green, Fulford Heath is located on a high plateau and all other surrounding settlements, such as Dickens Heath, Earlswood and Wythall located on lower ground. The site itself is relatively flat with a gentle fall from the north west (153.5m AOD) to the south east (148m AOD). See Figure 5 for details. 2.13 Landscape Character & Visual Amenity

2.13.1 The site lies within an undulating landscape incised by streams and valleys, characterised by woodland blocks, copses and hedgerows enclosing agricultural fields and pasture. Settlements are characterised by village cores expanded by modern Photo 1: Mature trees and a well maintained hedgerow Photo 2: Existing access to Tidbury Green Farm. Photo 3: Northern site boundary. Existing vegetation define Fulford Hall Road. filters views of the school. development on the periphery.

2.13.2 The visual assessment demonstrates that the extensive woodland and housing, which encloses the site, would prevent material views of development from anything but local viewpoints, despite the site’s locally higher landform. In particular, the visually strong hedgerow pattern and the extension to Big Dickens’ Wood form landscape features which, when overlapping, create strong visual enclosure.

2.13.3 The site provides a well defined north-south landscape pattern of mature trees, most of which are in good condition and should be incorporated into the proposed masterplan where possible. A mature woodland belt also provides definition along Fulford Hall Road. An existing weak point within this woodland should be Photo 4: Central field with trees and a broken Photo 5: Eastern fields with trees and a hedgerow Photo 6: Existing woodland provides a robust utilised for the site access to minimise the impact on existing trees. hedgerow bisecting it. bisecting them.
