There is very little residential development proposed for the rural areas which questions whether the Council will meet the NPPF target of delivering at least 10% of their housing requirement on small and medium sized sites (as set out within paragraph 69 of the NPPF). Land to the rear of 89 Rampton Road, Cottenham would provide a sustainable small site with potential for self-build properties. The GCLP needs to provide for a range of different housing needs which allows smaller settlements and rural areas to continue to thrive. This is in accordance with Paragraph 79 of the NPPF which seeks to promote sustainable development in rural areas by locating housing growth where it will enhance or maintain the vitality of rural communities and enable villages to grow and thrive.
