Environment Policy 1
Protects countryside and ecology outside settlements or designated areas; development adversely affecting it not permitted unless overriding national need. Relevant to rural site of high landscape/coastal value and scenic significance per 1982 Development Order. Officer noted site location but focused assessment on HP11.
