The Howard Venue is a valued asset well used by the local community and should be retained on the site. The strong orthogonal character of the existing site should inform the development of future development structure through a simple gridded block structure. The historic avenue of trees along the western boundary of the site provides an opportunity to create well defined built frontage facing onto landscape rather than the backs of buildings. Be fully integrated into the existing urban fabric by responding to the village character of Hextable in terms of scale, materials and layout. Use the existing perimeter block street pattern to the east of the site on Egerton Avenue and New Road to inform the layout of housing on site. Establish a network of connected streets which prioritise walking and cycling over private car use for short trips within the development. The structure of the site should naturally extend the existing grain of streets. The development of the site provides a good opportunity to introduce a new pedestrian link from the elbow of Egerton Avenue towards the south and west to connect into the top of Swanley Park. Create safe, attractive and clear cycling and pedestrian routes which minimise distances between the site and local shops, services and public transport interchanges. Ensure a hierarchy of routes so that important routes are clearly identifiable. Use the natural features of the site to inform development and integrate it into its wider setting. The topography, geology and trees can be used to reinforce local distinctiveness. In particular, the existing avenue of trees along the western edge of the site should help to provide a strong characteristic for the site. | 2024-12-31 | |

A new access could also be made onto College Road. The playing fields and avenue of limes provide important open space and are not suitable for development. It is important to retain the gap between Hextable and Swanley and to avoid encroachment here. The dance studio is an important community facility and should be retained. Overall the north eastern part of the site is considered able to accommodate development however it is located in the Green Belt so this designation would need to change in order for it to be developed. | 2017-12-01 |
