The town of Battle is a much smaller centre than Bexhill, located within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The historic core of the town was designated a Conservation Area in 1970. Therefore, at Question 17, our client considers that Development Option 1 - continued development to support the town's role - would be most appropriate, as this would bring consolidation and enhancement of Battle's service centre and tourism role, whilst at the same time maintaining its historic, 'small town' character.
