Since the public consultation last summer, North Somerset Council has confirmed that it is proposing to allocate the site for residential development as a part of the larger ‘Land east of Backwell’ allocation in the emerging North Somerset Local Plan 2041. The overall Land east of Backwell site (including the application site) is proposed for allocation under draft Policy LP5 – Housing, Employment and Mixed Use Allocations. It is also identified as a proposed allocation on the Policies Map:
