Biggin Hill Traveller site set to be approved despite objections
Original source: News Shopper

Retrospective plans for a caravan site in Biggin Hill are recommended for approval by Bromley Council's plans sub-committee, despite the site being on green belt land and bordering a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The application received 14 objections since 2024. The council report acknowledges the development is 'inappropriate' and 'harmful' to the green belt, but argues that 'very special circumstances'—an unmet need for accommodation for six families with long-standing local connections—outweigh the harm.
