1.3 KEY ISSUES
Welcome references to the need for comprehensive development, and the sensitive historical location and proximity of Denny Abbey, but other assets need to be referenced.

1.3 Key Issues - 1 The need for comprehensive development
We welcome reference to the need for comprehensive development of the site. This has been a key concern for Historic England over the years in relation to this site.

1.3 Key Issues - 5 Managing a sensitive historical location
We welcome reference to the sensitive historical location and proximity of Denny Abbey. We would highlight the fact that there are other designated heritage assets in the immediate surroundings. These include Denny Abbey Refectory listed at grade I, barn to the north of Denny Abbey listed at grade II and Waterbeach Conservation Area to the south of the site. These assets need to be specifically referenced in the SPD.

P10, para1 We welcome the reference Denny Abbey and the Major Development Site boundary outside of which built development is not permitted. This boundary was agreed through the EiP.
