Re: Townscape Character
Hi, Has anyone done some work for the LDF on townscape character in an urban context? I'm aware of the work by Tower Hamlets and Southampton, but I was wondering if anyone else has any examples? Thanks Harriet
Harriet We have an LDF urban characterisation & density study out for consultation at the moment - links attached: Rgds Robert http://www.hart.gov.uk/index.htm http://www.hart.gov.uk/index/top-planning/planning-policy/planning-policy-local_development_framework/planning-policy-evidence-base/planning-policy-urban-characterisation-and-density-study_.htm
You may have already seen this well publicised one from Northamptonshire but its quite useful http://www.wndc.org.uk/publications/manual_for_design_codes.aspx Sarah
Harriet, We have a Town Design Statement SPD which seperates teh various different character areas. May be worth a look? Graham http://www.testvalley.gov.uk/Default.aspx?page=7035
Hi, You might find 'Distinctly Darlington' of interest. http://www.darlington.gov.uk/Living/Planning+and+Building+Control/Planning+Services/Planning+Policy/NewDesignSPD.htm (scroll down to the bottom of the page linked to). It is one of the nominees in the RTPI North East 2010 Awards
