Policy needs to more closely linked to national policy as set out in NPPF paragraph 172. Policy fails to explain purpose of AONB designation and implications this has for the control of new development. We agree that "The flatness of the landscape makes the AONB particularly vulnerable to visual intrusion from inappropriate development, both within or adjacent to the boundary, which can often be seen from significant distances across inlets, the main harbour channels, or open countryside." And it is therefore right that the District Council will have particular regard to these characteristics in determining development proposals affecting the AONB."
