Whilst we note that the allocation of this site for sports use is carried forward from the current adopted Local Plan this is regrettable. As recognised in the supporting sheet for the site, it is an area of wildlife value and forms part of the ecological corridor on the south-eastern edge of the town. Proposals for any sports facilities on this site must be informed by survey and assessment of all of the ecological receptors likely to be impacted by the development. Appropriate ecological mitigation and enhancement measures must be embedded as part of any proposal.
