18Land East of Parsonage Lane, South Molton (Proposal SMO2d) ADOPTED DEVELOPMENT BRIEF5.21 The development is also expressly linked to the delivery of the extension to the CommunityWoodland. Direct pedestrian links should be provided into the Community Woodland toenable future residents to utilise this facility. The development should also act to improvepedestrian links for South Molton as a whole, from the town centre to the CommunityWoodland and onto Pathfields Business Park.5.22 All areas of open space provided on-site should be designed to be active and overlookedspaces that are safe areas to play and enjoy, as well as being easily maintained. Footpaths,low key roads and houses fronting directly on to the areas of open space should beintroduced to provide activity and surveillance. The informal open space area to the northof Hollymoor House should be designed so as to discourage the area from being usedas a formal play space to avoid conflict with traffic entering and leaving the site and toprotect the amenities of the existing dwelling.Detailed Design Guidance5.23 The following design principles should be taken into account in the detailed design forthe site:• The designers and developers will be expected to be able to demonstrate how the proposalresponds to the site context, character and local distinctiveness;• Reference should be made to the local vernacular, in particular related to layout andhow the buildings relate to spaces and streets;• Direct copying of architectural features should be avoided to prevent an undesirablepastiche;• The palette of styles and materials should be limited in order to maintain simple consistencyand local Identity;• Proposals should establish appropriate proportions and composition of architecturalelements; and• The proposal should include areas of incidental open spaces that respond to the existingfeatures of the site.April 2008RPS Planning
Phasing195.24 In order to ensure the development does not cause additional traffic on ParsonageLane and North Street during its construction, the development should be served fromStation Road until the new road link from Parsonage Lane to North Road is completed.The Council will expect the applicant to sign up to a legal agreement to ensure the newlink road between Parsonage Lane and North Road is implemented at the completionof around 50% of the development and completed prior to the construction of the final25% of the development. In order to relieve existing traffic problems on Parsonage Lane,consideration should be given to providing the proposed link from North Road earlier.
