within the rolling landscape. The footpaths link the settlements of Kirton and Falkenham to other areas of settlement in the area and to the River Deben.

Recreational users of PROWs are assessed as having a medium susceptibility to change from the proposed project. The views, although in an AONB and over the River Deben, are mainly over agricultural fields and are not demarcated as valued views on an OS map. Therefore the value of the views are assessed as medium. The overall sensitivity of users of the PROWs to the proposed project is medium.


55. Users of sailing and other water-borne vessels on the River Deben will experience views over the surrounding marshland flats and more distant views of the rising valley sides. The main focus of the view is likely to be along the River Deben and the areas of navigation. The onshore cable route will be passed beneath the River Deben using HDD and will have little visible impact on the River or the marshlands. Any impacts on the loss of field boundaries in the expansive, open vista from the river will appear minor in the overall view. Susceptibility to change from the proposed project is considered to be medium to low for users of sailing and other water-borne vessels on the River Deben. The value of the views is assessed as medium to high. The overall sensitivity of water-borne vessels on the River Deben to the proposed project is considered to be medium.

Section 3 - Road Crossing RDX02 to RDX03


In this section the onshore cable route passes through a flat, slightly elevated agricultural landscape before dipping into a subtle valley landscape as it travels north parallel to the River Deben. There are 4 LCTs within this section of the route:


• LCT 07 – Estate Sandlands; • LCT 11 – Plateau Estate Farmlands; • LCT 16 – Rolling Estate Sandlands; and, • LCT 26 – Valley Meadowlands;


57.


The key characteristics of the Rolling Estate Sandlands LCT and Plateau Estate Farmlands LCT are described above in sections 29.3.8 and 29.3.9. The Estate Sandlands introduce a subtle change in landscape to the Rolling Estate Sandlands which occur at the fringes of the Estate Sandlands within the study area. The Estate Sandlands are described as:


58. A landscape of large geometric fields, plantation woodlands and remnant heathland


• Flat or very gently rolling plateaux of free-draining sandy soils, overlying drift deposits of either glacial or fluvial origin
