Green belt homes plan for Purbeck cancelled

Source BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/dorset/10545727.stm

Plans to build thousands of homes on green belt land in Dorset have been shelved. The previous government wanted to build 5,150 properties in Purbeck by 2026. Of them 2,750 were proposed for the green belt around Lytchett Matravers, Lytchett Minster and Upton as an extension of Poole into Purbeck. However on Tuesday ministers confirmed quotas for new homes had been scrapped. Residents and Purbeck District Council had opposed the plans.

Maybe in Purbeck, but not it would seem in Swanage...

Oh dear!

I rather assumed that it covered Swanage, as it is within the Isle of Purbeck.
