Natural England notes the amendments to reflect Garden Village status of the site and welcomes bullet points j, k, l and r which aim to protect and enhance the biodiversity interests within the site. We would emphasise the importance of taking the opportunity on this site to create a connected green infrastructure network throughout the site for maximum benefit for both people and nature using the information provided within the Biodiversity Opportunity Mapping. We advise that the principles and standards set out within Natural England’s Green Infrastructure Framework should be incorporated within the design of this large development.

For the proposed residential allocations within Stamford we would reiterate the importance of establishing a connected network of high quality green infrastructure at the earliest stage of the planning process.
We also advise that for residential developments surrounding Stamford may require an assessment of recreational pressure if it falls within the Impact Risk Zone (IRZ) for Cambridgeshire SSSIs. This may be relevant to the Barnack Hill & Holes SAC and measures to mitigate any adverse impacts e.g. alternative open space provision may be required.
