CA-ESDQ3: Design of new development to be of high quality and make a positive contribution towards the distinctive character of the village as a whole and must relate well to its site and its surroundings. New development must contribute to local character by creating a sense of place appropriate to its location

Development shall complement and be well integrated with neighbouring properties in the immediate locality in terms of scale, density, massing, separation, layout, materials and access;
Architectural design should reflect local design references in both the natural and built environment and take account of the architectural character and identities of the individual villages as described in Section 6 of this Plan; and
The height of new buildings should be in keeping with neighbouring properties and roofscapes should be well articulated and avoid bulky, featureless appearances.
