Important Update Crudwell Neighbourhood Plan Design Code

We are developing a new Crudwell Design Code as part of the Neighbourhood Plan Review. The Code gives detailed instruction and guidance to developers of new homes and extensions to properties to ensure that any new building is in harmony with our village street scene.
Following our consultation event in Crudwell Village Hall on Tuesday the 22nd of April we have now made the draft Design Code available online for your review together with a simple form where you can give your views or suggestions. Please review the Design Code and then, if you wish, make your comments on the response form. A paper copy of the response form is also available in the Post Office. The consultation will close on the 18th of May 2025.

Important Event – Crudwell Neighbourhood Plan Design Code

Important Event; Crudwell Neighbourhood Plan Design Code
As you are probably aware Crudwell Parish Council are currently engaged in a formal review of the Crudwell Neighbourhood Plan. This is necessary to ensure that any housing development in the village prior to 2038 is at a scale, design and affordability which meets local needs.
As part of this work the Parish Council and Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group has commissioned a required Crudwell Design Code to update the current Design Guide in our 2021 Neighbourhood Plan. The architectural consultants toured the parish with us during February in order to help develop the code and have now delivered a first draft.
The clue is in the title; a Design Guide gives guidance whereas a Design Code gives specific instruction to developers of new housing and to extensions of existing properties. The code will help to ensure that any development is in keeping with and complimentary to our village street scene and heritage.
We have promised to keep you informed at all stages of the Plans development and in order to do this we are inviting you to an exhibition of features of the draft Design Code in Crudwell Village Hall from 3pm to 7pm on Tuesday the 22nd of April. Members of the Steering Group and the architectural consultants will be there to answer your questions, and you will be invited to give your written or verbal feedback. The draft Design Code will also subsequently be available on our website for review and comment.
 
We do hope to see you on the 22nd April.
