For the Capstone Corridor at paras 4.7.2 -4.7.7 the influence of the setting of the National Landscape should take account of the Lidsing Garden Community which is a strategic allocation of 2,000 dwellings with 14 ha of employment land, a local centre and community infrastructure within Maidstone Borough Council's administrative area and will serve as a buffer between Capstone and the National Landscape. This allocation within the Maidstone Local Plan (adopted 2024) should be acknowledged in these paragraphs. Later para 14.8.1 also overplays the National Landscape setting for the same reasons.
