This representation objects to the removal of development limits for Gelli Aur, and also puts forward a site that would be appropriate for inclusion (for housing) within the development limits, when re-drawn (AS2/066/001). The village is of significant size and is within walking distance of a key agricultural college, as well as an important historic building and parkland (Gelli Aur), the full potential of which has yet to be realised. The village has also enjoyed convenient access to a country park and café facility managed by Carmarthenshire County Council. The village is also readily accessible to nearby Llandeilo, with its high order goods and services, including primary and secondary education, healthcare services, retail outlets, and the historic Dinefwr Park. The suggested site is considered an ideal ‘rounding off’ of the village and would provide a much needed residential opportunity for the locality.

Appropriate development within Gelli Aur would not lead to additional environmental pressure, but instead will foster sustainable growth and allow for a wider choice of housing type within this Tier 4 Rural Village. Its development would be in keeping and in character with the settlement and will ensure a readily deliverable source of future housing for this sustainable community.
In addition, residential development at this location:-
· would not be detrimental to the amenity of adjacent properties;
· would satisfy recognised housing and sustainability objectives;
· would not have a detrimental impact on the landscape or nature conservation interests.
Furthermore, the representation site is not impeded by any access, ground condition, flood risk, hydrological, ecological, archaeological or land ownership related constraints and its short term delivery is assured.
It is considered that this site is both sustainable and readily deliverable and offers a valuable development option within the village.
The inclusion of this land within reinstated development limits would be fully supported.
The approach as set out within Strategic Policy SP3 - Sustainable Distribution - Settlement Framework and HOM3 are considered sound. The diversity of the County is recognised with regard given to housing in rural areas, and the value such areas play within the County. Within rural villages (Tier 4), and non-defined settlements, opportunities for new housing development may exist for proponents of appropriate residential proposals, as defined by policy HOM3. It is considered that development limits will not be drawn for proposals within Tier 4 settlements.
