North Northallerton Development Area – Masterplan Framework & Design Guidance Figure 4.1: Key Views and Contours 23
North Northallerton Development Area – Masterplan Framework & Design Guidance and does not give guidance on the infrastructure specifically around Northallerton. Note should be taken of the typologies in the Green Infrastructure report. 4.12 Key landscape Issues include: The Open Spaces, Sport & Recreation SPD suggests the need for around 10 ha of open space split under various typologies for the new development, of which around 5Ha is for sports (excludes wider catchment). 8 ha suggested in the Allocations DPD cannot be formed in a single area as shown. It needs to account for placemaking, retained features, accessibility and appropriate locations, more open space may be required to meet these objectives. Appropriate uses for areas of undevelopable flood zone need to be found, recreation facilities in the flood zone may not be acceptable. Landscape features such as the woodland and the hedgerows should be retained where possible. Wildlife corridors particularly those along the railway and the Beck need to be protected and where appropriate enhanced. The Environmental Assessment may require a maintenance strip of 8m from the top of the bank of the Beck. Hard ‘green’ wooded edge to development is not suitable. The brief suggests that the recreation facilities outlined for the masterplan will be funded by both developer contributions and other funding opportunities - this will be a challenge in the current economic climate. Settlement Form - Townscape and Local Vernacular 4.13 Given the isolated nature of development around the town centre and the lack of cohesive townscape in many of the residential areas it will be difficult to tie new development into the existing. 4.14 The coalescence of Romanby into Northallerton could provide a starting concept. It may be appropriate to generate a contemporary village core based on the model from the local historic villages, stitching a higher density development here back into the town with sensitively designed new development. 4.15 One of the lessons to be learnt though is that this development should not create an inward facing and poorly connected layout. Linking routes across the scheme should ensure that the area is permeable. 4.16 Though the development falls within a largely rural setting it is important to understand the prevalent form and evolution of the existing townscape and local vernacular, to enable new development to respond positively to the built context. Townscape studies have been undertaken in the baseline analysis, looking at Northallerton, Brompton and Romanby. 4.17 Recommendations from contextual analysis: Village green to the core of development, usually bookended by a cross road and significant village buildings to one end, the vista at the other closed with attractive detached buildings. Tight knit urban form around the green and the village centre with some farmstead type of arrangement of buildings to the rear. Narrow carriageways, foot paths associated to the property not the open space. 24
