Mill Road Depot Draft Planning and Development Brief SPD
Representation ID: 31074
Received: 19/07/2016
Respondent: Historic England
Paragraph 4.6.9 Historic England welcomes the requirement for a careful consideration of heritage assets in support of any planning application. Any assessment will need to give consideration to local context and key views. We note that the Council/consultants consider that 4 storeys may be appropriate along the eastern boundary of the site. Any development would need to give due consideration to the draft Local Plan (Proposed Modifications) which sets out criterion against which tall buildings are assessed. Historic England awaits more detailed proposals to assess and draw firm conclusions in this respect.
