CS 5: The Built Environment
The Council will protect and seek to enhance the Borough’s heritage assets including historic buildings, conservation areas, archaeological remains, ancient monuments, parks and gardens of historic interest, and other areas of special character.
The settings of these assets will be protected and enhanced.
High quality and inclusive design will be required for all developments. Development should:
- create attractive, functional and safe public and private environments;
- reinforce local distinctiveness and complement the attractive characteristics of the Borough;
- make efficient use of land and have regard to the need to develop land in a comprehensive way.
