The local Greenbelt in Halesowen is of historic value as the Abbey is there. It is also an area of natural beauty with views on public paths towards clent hills. It also acts as a buffer against the noise and pollution caused by the nearby M5 junction. It should not even be in the core strategy and definately not built on. Over all the Greenbelt in the Black Country should stay and act as a buffer against urban sprawl. The figures for the estimated numbers of houses needed I believe are an over estimate.
