The park authority decides applications here. Great weight to conserving the landscape; major development restricted.
Landscape, scenic beauty and wildlife carry great weight, and major development is only allowed in exceptional circumstances.
Also on the record

Not affected

A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
