Appendix 1 Land Allocations Local Plan

Dover District Council
122
Land Allocations Local Plan Adopted 2015
Proposed Development
3.381 The site offers the potential for limited residential development subject to a scheme
coming forward which preserves and enhances the special character of the area. In particular,
the design should seek to reflect the informal character of the area and reflect the established
pattern of the existing development. Development should be restricted to the lower portion
of the site, and the elevated areas should be restricted to garden land only. In order to protect
the setting of the Conservation Area the existing wall fronting Upper Street should be retained
in its entirety. Development proposals will need to be accompanied by a Tree Survey that
has been agreed with the Council that assesses the importance and identifies which trees
on the site need to be retained.

settlement confines that may enable development but do not warrant a site specific policy.
