Interesting stuff here about planning permissions etc.
"The Existing Protections on the Site at Craighouse
What the Developers Said
The developers stated in their consultation materials:
'We propose enabling development only on existing brownfield sites or on areas previously allocated for development'
In reality they propose to develop on highly protected sites, including green areas that have never been “allocated for development”. Other areas, such as the orchard, were allocated in a 1992 development brief, but later officially rejected."
