PLANS to build over the last piece of green belt between twovillages have been thrown out at appeal.
Clearbrook Group Plc was appealing after Brentwood BoroughCouncil turned down its proposal for five large houses on the plotbetween Herongate and Ingrave on land adjacent to HillcrestNurseries in Brentwood Road.
The inspector, Christopher Millns, however, has dismissed theappeal, stating: "The very special circumstances needed to justifythe development in the green belt do not therefore exist."
In his appeal decision report, Mr Millns, added: "The twovillages are very close to each other with little by way ofundeveloped land between them.
"It is apparent from the response of local residents to theproposals that the site is regarded as a very important featureseparating these two communities."
