start with an assessment of the value of retaining

character and identity are appropriate to its use
and context;
•
sit happily in the pattern of existing development
and routes through and around it;
•
respect important views;

respect the scale of neighbouring buildings;
•
Use materials and building methods which are as

Create new views and juxtapositions which add to
the variety and texture of the setting.
