GB1 – Green Belt
The Green Belt shown on the Proposals Map will be permanent and within it development will not be permitted which would conflict with the purposes of the Green Belt and maintaining its openness. Subject to the above, development will not be permitted except for uses appropriate to the Green Belt, comprising:
- agriculture and forestry
- essential facilities for outdoor sport and recreation, for cemeteries, and for other uses of land which preserve the openness of the Green Belt and which do not conflict with the purposes of including land in it
- limited extension, alteration or replacement of existing dwellings
- appropriate re-use of buildings (see also Policy GB4)
- appropriate engineering and other operations
(Policy GB4 which deals with the reuse of buildings in the Green Belt)
