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.
