The objectives of a Village Design statement are:

• to describe the distinctive character of the village and the surrounding countryside.
• to show how character can be identified at 3 levels
• the landscape setting of the village
• the shape of the settlement
• the nature of the buildings themselves
• to draw up design principles based on the distinctive local character
• to work in partnership with the local planning authority in the context of existing local planning policy, and to influence future policies.
