Rural Exceptions

Exceptionally, land adjoining or closely related to the defined rural settlements (see Annex 3) which would otherwise be considered inappropriate for development, may be developed in order to provide affordable housing in perpetuity provided that:

  • the housing comprises 100% affordable housing; the housing is to meet local needs;
  • the housing would be justified by a Parish or settlement housing needs survey;
  • the development is small scale and respects the setting, form and character of the settlement and the surrounding landscape; and
  • the development would accord with all relevant Development Plan Policies.
