Appendix iiSecure by DesignBuilding RegulationsApplication for approval under the BuildingRegulations can be made to the Director ofDevelopment on the forms available fromBasingstoke and Deane Borough Council.Crime PreventionThe Home Office and local Police Forces inEngland and Wales have identified a seriesof measures to reduce crime and the fearof crime in housing developments. Threesubjects require to be considered at thedesign stage:■ defensible spaces■ landscape■ natural surveillance.Defensible SpacesThe area’s inhabitants have the right to feelat ease and secure in their surroundings.Each house or small group of dwellingsshould be provided with an intermediatespace between itself and the rest of thedevelopment in general. The barriersaround this space may be either real orsymbolic with fences, narrow entrances,changes of surface, colour or texture andareas of planting. Whether the design usessingle buildings or groups of buildings thelayout should achieve a series of smallenclosures within which there are clearviews at eye level except where privacy ismore important. Public footpaths acrossthe development should occupyconspicuous places and avoid givingopportunities for unobserved access.LandscapeSuccessful landscape design depends onstriking a balance between enclosure andvisibility between separate spaces. Clearviews of the immediate surroundings nearfootpaths and dwellings are essential andthe design should allow for a plane ofvisibility over the tops of low shrubs andbelow the canopies of trees. Full heightboundaries should be used only whereprivacy and enclosure are important andwhere security has to be maintainedbetween two separate land uses.Natural SurveillanceBetter security depends on improving theviewpoint towards vulnerable areas likechildren’s play spaces and car parks andthrough increasing the number of potentialviewers of these areas. Garages, drives andcar spaces need to be put either close tothe dwelling or within a general field ofview. Ideally this means either in front ofthe dwelling itself, except where parkedvehicles would interrupt visibility, oradequately lit and visible parking spaces insmall groups. Variety in the size and typeof dwellings to be built, e.g. ofconventional houses, single storeybuildings or flats would enable workingage ranges, retired people and others to bepresent for a greater share of the twentyfour hour day.old kempshott lane development brief
