The Visions Realised 65 Appendix 67 FOREWORD Air Marshal Sir Frederick Sowrey KCB CBE AFC This is a story of determination and endeavour in the face of many difficulties — the site, finance and "the authorities" — which had to be overcome in the significant achievement of the world's first circular airport terminal building . A concept which seems commonplace now was very revolutionary fifty years ago, and it was the foresight of those who achieved so much which springs from the pages of John King's fascinating narrative. Although a building is the central character, the story rightly involves people because it was they who had to agonise over the decisions which were necessary to achieve anything. They had the vision, but they had to convince others : they had to raise the cash, to generate the publicity, to supervise the work — often in the face of opposition to Gatwick as a commercial airfield.

In particular, the impact of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, including the setting of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is unchanged. Policy SP17 (Countryside) still applies. Policies ENV 28 (Development in the Countryside), ENV 33 (Kent Downs AONB) and ENV34 (Special Landscape Areas) of the 2000 Plan were saved and therefore form part of the current Local Plan. The location remains backland development. Policy DM1 of the current plan (Principles of Good Design) still applies, in particular section iv “Respect the amenities of occupiers of neighbouring properties and uses and provide adequate residential amenities for future occupiers of the development by ensuring that development does not result in excessive noise, vibration, odour, aid pollution, activity of vehicular movements, overlooking or visual intrusion, and that the built form would not result in an unacceptable loss of privacy or light enjoyed by the occupiers of nearby properties”.
