The assessment was undertaken in accordance with best practice and the Guidelines for Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment (GLVIA) and was prepared by a Chartered Member of the Landscape Institute. Through the appraisal of the landscape and visual effects, it was demonstrated that the proposed residential development would be a natural extension to the village designed to fit into the landscape context.
