3.36 Barratt is supportive of the Local Plan’s aspirations for health and wellbeing and
identifying opportunities through new development to support the creation of strong, vibrant and healthy communities. Health and wellbeing are core to the social objective of sustainable development as defined by the NPPF (paragraph 8).
3.37 At the heart of this is locating new development in the right locations and ensuring it delivers sufficient infrastructure to make better places for living. Land at Pennwood provides an opportunity to accommodate a sustainable community that integrates well with existing residents and provides access to open space including the new woodland park and play facilities within a safe and inclusive environment.
