The Signpost provides a local reference guide for all residents and is especially useful for newcomers to the village who receive a copy with their welcome pack. Since the last edition in 2008 Information Technology has advanced enormously and the format of this guide has been changed to reflect that. It is primarily a GUIDE pointing to the numerous and diverse activities within the village by providing contact details and, wherever possible, an Internet link. This will ensure that information is more up to date than is possible with a printed publication. The following symbols are used...

  • North Ferriby Village Design Statement
    North Ferriby Village Design Statement Introduction Most established villages have evolved over many years and their inhabitants at any period are merely the temporary holders of an ongoing heritage that they must pass on in due course. They are the formers, shapers and builders of the character of the village and as such should be aware of the effects they may have on the village at the present time and in the future. This Village Design Statement sets out how the villagers of North Ferriby saw their village in the year 2000, what they valued, what they disliked and what they thought should be preserved and passed on in order to maintain the character of North Ferriby. Every villager from 6 to 60 and beyond, from those born in the village to those who had just arrived, had the opportunity to express how they saw the essential ‘North Ferriby’. This booklet now represents those views and opinions in print. It is principally directed at developers, planners, builders, architects, designers and engineers, but it applies equally to householders, local community groups and businesses as well as statutory bodies and public authorities. Its adoption by the East Riding of Yorkshire Council as a supplementary planning guidance The view from Swanland Hill, North Ferriby. document will assist them and the Parish Council in ensuring that the character of North Ferriby, as influenced by the residents, will be taken into account when planning applications are assessed.
