  • Supplementary Planning Document 8
    Rochford District Council LOCAL DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK RURAL SETTLEMENT AREAS Supplementary Planning Document Regulation 17 Consultation Draft July 2006 Rochford District Council – Head of Planning & Transportation – Shaun Scrutton BSc (Hons), Dip TP, MRTPI, IHBC, MBA, MCMI 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 This Supplementary Planning Document provides further detail on Policy R2 (Rural Settlement Areas) of the Rochford District Replacement Local Plan. 1.2 Within the Rural Settlement Areas dwellings are not subject to the restrictive policies relating to extensions that are applied elsewhere in the Green Belt. Instead they are subject to policy R2 of the Replacement Local Plan which considers modest extensions in a similar way to that applied in residential areas. Due to the fairly built-up nature of these areas Policy R2 allows greater scope for the extension of dwellings within these areas whilst still maintaining Green Belt control in all other aspects. 1.3 The policy is applied individually to each dwelling and the latter section of this SPD lists each dwelling to which the policy applies. The dwellings to which the policy applies are also shown on the Replacement Local Plan Proposals Map. 2. RURAL SETTLEMENT AREAS POLICY 2.1 Policy R2 of the Replacement Local Plan is shown below. POLICY R2 – RURAL SETTLEMENT AREAS WITHIN THE GREEN BELT Within the following rural settlement areas:- i. Central Avenue/Pevensey Gardens, Hullbridge; ii. Pooles Lane, Hullbridge; iii. Windsor Gardens, Hawkwell; iv. Rectory Road/Hall Road, Hawkwell; v. Barling Road/Rebels Lane, Great Wakering; vi. Stonebridge, Barling; vii. Hall Road, Rochford; viii. Kingsmans Farm Road, Hullbridge; and, ix.
