Policy
Gables facing the street should be considered to articulate corners and break long roof lines.
Policy
New developments should utilise the vertical rhythm and narrow, joined building compositions prevalent across Uttlesford within their designs.
Policy
Contemporary buildings should preserve the characteristic of verticality and commercial buildings. Where modern floor plates are required (such as for mixed-use development) facades should incorporate dividing elements to create vertical segments.
Policy
New developments should utilise variety and contrast to create vibrant and rich places.
Policy
Proposals should take inspiration from the local palette and uses materials and colours that respond to landscape setting and landscape character. (see section 3 Uttlesford Places)
Policy
Proposals should encourage the re-use of redundant farm buildings, especially red brick or black timber-framed and boarded barns.
Policy
Proposals should take inspiration from local patterns, colours and detailing, responding to Uttlesford Places and the special characteristics of the area within which the development is located.
Policy
Proposals should consider the use of surface relief and depth of shadow to avoid flat facades. The use of deep reveals is encourages to emphasis building details and offer solar shading.
Policy
Any new development must respond to historic settlement pattern, especially urban grain, scale and density.
Policy
Within larger new developments the characteristics of historic urban grain should be used as a tool for legibility for example defining the core of new neighbourhoods and key routes through use of tighter urban grain.
