INTRODUCTION 1.1. BACKGROUND TO THE PROJECT This report has been commissioned by Gravesham Borough Council to support the in house forward planning team working on the Borough’s Local Development Framework (LDF). It consists of an independent landscape character based analysis and review of a number of sites which have been considered by the Forward Planning team in a study of potential development areas. The report is therefore part of a wider planning analysis which generated the sites being considered. The background, methodology and results of the wider study will become available as part of the LDF consultation process at a later stage. 1.2. BRIEF Our brief is to consider the sensitivity and likely landscape impacts of developing specific sites which have been identified by the Forward Planning section of Gravesham Borough Council. We have consequently focussed on these sites alone and commented purely on landscape related matters in order to provide the Forward Planning team with the requisite information to enable them to take their selection process forward as part of the Borough’s Local Development Framework. 1.3. LOCATION The various sites being considered are located either within or adjoining existing settlements in Gravesham Borough. These settlements range from the largest town, Gravesend, through to smaller villages. The locations of the various settlements are shown on the drawing at figure 1. Gravesham Borough Council Figure 1: The locations of the various settlements which are spread across the borough. 4 ©David Hares Landscape Architecture 2011 Landscape character based analysis of potential housing sites in Gravesham 1.4. THE SETTLEMENTS The settlements which are affected, in alphabetical order include: Culverstone Green Gravesend Higham Hook Green Istead Rise Meopham Green Vigo 1.5. METHOD A landscape character based technique has been used to analyse the potential landscape effects of developing specific sites in each settlement. This is described more fully in subsequent chapters and includes analysis of the landscape context of each of the settlements in relation to existing county and district scale assessments and undertaking a more detailed local scale characterisation of the landscape setting of the settlements. Specific sites are then assessed both individually and in relation to the local landscape context. Analysis of the wider visual impacts of potential development and local impacts are also considered. 1.6. REPORT STRUCTURE This report is structured as follows: Section 1 Introduction Section 2 Methodology----- used to assess the landscape context, the potential effects on landscape character, and the potential visual impacts of developing selected sites. Section 3 The Landscape Character of the Borough ------ descriptions of how the settings of the various settlements fit within the character areas described within the existing Gravesham Borough Character Assessment Sections 4 to 10 Landscape Character Analysis of Settlements ------ firstly, considering the wider landscape context in relation to character and views of the landscape around the settlement at a local scale, and then each of the individual sites in detail. Guidance on ways in which any potential development would need to be constrained in order to minimise the impact on the landscape has also been included. Section 11 Conclusions ------- Summary table of the findings of the study in relation to each of the sites.
