  • Appendix 1 Green Belt and MOL Assessment Sheets
    Appendix 1 Green Belt and MOL Assessment Sheets Land Parcel Ref: GB1 Parcel Type: Green Belt Main Authority: Waltham Forest Other Authorities: Epping Forest District Land Parcel Ref: GB1 Parcel Type: Green Belt Purpose 1 - To check the unrestricted sprawl of large built-up areas Issue 1a - Ribbon development Does the parcel play a role in preventing ribbon development and/or has the Green Belt within the parcel already been compromised by ribbon development? Some role - parcel inhibiting development along one side of a road corridor (+1) Notes: The parcel plays some role in preventing ribbon development northwards along Bury Road between Chingford and Sewardstonebury. Issue 1b - Openness Is the parcel free from development? Does the parcel have a sense of openness? Land parcel contains limited development and has a relatively strong sense of openness (+1) Notes: The parcel is largely open and free from development; however, a small primary school and plant nursery lie within the Green Belt along the western edge of the parcel. While these developments do reduce the openness within this portion of the parcel, they are located within woodland limiting their effect on the surrounding Green Belt. The parcel also contains a covered reservoir and golf course; however neither of these developments compromises the openness of the Green Belt. Land Parcel Ref: GB1 Parcel Type: Green Belt Purpose 2 - To prevent neighbouring towns merging into one another Issue 2a - Location of parcel and distance between neighbouring settlements What is the width of the gap between the settlements at the point that the parcel is intersected? Between 500m and 750m (+2) Notes: The northern edge of the parcel borders the small village of Sewardstonebury.
