Newcastle-under-Lyme Local Plan 2011
Policy S17: Design of new buildings and significant alterations to existing buildings
In determining applications for development that involves the erection of new buildings or the significant alteration to the external appearance of an existing building, the Council will have regard to the following:
- the design criteria listed in Policy S16
- the architectural character of any building intended to be altered
- the character of the buildings and the area in which the development is proposed to be situated.
Developments that are unsympathetic to the overall environmental quality of a locality will be resisted.
1.30 A Village Design Statement has been prepared by Madeley Parish Council and Madeley Conservation Group in partnership with the Borough Council and has been adopted by the Borough Council as Supplementary Planning Guidance. Similar work is proceeding in Whitmore and others may follow. Applicants for permission for development within the areas covered will be expected to take account of their provisions.
