This site is partly suitable for development. The access point has not been defined, so it cannot be argued that highways constraints are insuperable obstacles to developing this site. They could be mitigated if the scale and layout of the proposed development were altered. The landscape impacts are likely to be no more adverse than for GNLP.0342 on open farmland. It is inevitable that Diss will have to be extended 'further into the open countryside' if its housing allocation (743 houses by 2038) is to be met. It is best to do so upon arable sites like this which have low historical and ecological value. Impacts on 'open countryside' can be mitigated by landscape design.
