The Settlement Development
Limit is designated to take account of land committed for development
and the role of the settlement whilst protecting its natural setting.
The Settlement Development Limit
is also designated to promote a compact settlement form and prevent
inappropriate expansion into the countryside along the four roads leading from
the Ballyrobert cross-roads and prevent coalescence with Kingsmoss to the south.
The Settlement Development Limit
for Ballyrobert respects the natural limit north of the settlement at
Lisnalinchy Burn and the old railway line to the east of the settlement as a
physical barrier to further development.
