Projects

Terra firma has completed many landscape sensitivity and capacity studies over the past 10 years using a methodology developed in collaboration with Kirkham Landscape Planning Limited. These studies are carried out on behalf of local planning authorities to form part of their evidence base informing their local plans and we have defended our findings as expert witness at Examination in Public. Studies have included assessing the capacity for a range of development types including housing, horticultural development, gypsy and traveller sites, and minerals and waste sites and councils have included Chichester District, Basingstoke and Deane, East Hampshire District, South Oxfordshire, South Buckinghamshire / Chilterns, Vale of White Horse, West Berkshire, and South Downs.
