Parish Portrait

This is the full version of the Parish Portrait document, complete with all photographs, maps and diagrams. It supports the Regulation 14 consultation version of the Neighbourhood Plan and can be downloaded The Main Parish Portrait report can be downloaded in .pdf format from here.

The document is a major supporting document for the Neighbourhood Development Plan in that it describes the history, geography, archaeology, natural and built environment of the parish and thus establishes the foundation for the character of the parish.

Originally intended as a section of the Plan, it became obvious very soon after starting that to do full justice to the area and all the aspects that we wanted to cover, that it would be a large section.  Rather than bulk out the main Plan and arguably deter people from reading the Steering Group decided that the Parish Portrait would be produced as a separate stand-alone report.
