"Development will be sensitively planned to complement the borough's natural environment. The borough's countryside, its intrinsic character and beauty including areas of tranquil retreat will be recognised. Rural communities will embrace appropriate development, in many instances through the preparation of their own neighbourhood plans. This development will reflect each area's unique local character whilst providing and supporting much needed housing and employment, rural facilities and services, including high speed broadband and public transport. Locally important green spaces and valued local landscapes will be protected and enjoyed by all."

There is nothing in this that is true when considering site977 Dennybrook. Natural environment destroyed. Rural communities CANNOT "embrace" the change from countryside views in all directions to being surrounded by modern hosuing on all sides. It is IMPOSSIBLE to reflect a rural areas character in 1000's of new houses. "Local landscapes will be protected" is IMPOSSIBLE.
