Opportunities to re-stitch historic urban grain will be encouraged.
Policy
A celebration of local landmarks is important to the identity of Uttlesford. Views to these landmarks may be framed by buildings, defined vistas, revealed sequential views or glimpsed views over the skyline.
Policy
Open views to historic buildings and local landmarks like churches must be conserved.
Policy
New development should utilise focal buildings and create new landmarks to create reference points and enhance identity.
Policy
The sensitive conversion of barns which respects traditional materials, built fabric and landscape character will be encouraged.
Policy
Where topography is a key component of a site, proposals should clearly demonstrate how they reflect the topographical characteristics of Uttlesford.
Policy
Building forms and massing should respond to topography, staggering heights to step up or down.
Policy
Long uniform ridge / eaves lines should be avoided.
Policy
Proposals should take advantage of opportunities to utilise topography to capture and maximise views, particularly to the surrounding countryside, or landmark buildings.
Policy
Proposals should draw from historic patterns to integrate into the landscape and topography.
