Dean Clifford, co-founder of Great Marlborough Estates, said:
“The revised National Planning Policy Framework published today shows a greater focus on good design for housing. This is welcome news and represents an assurance that developers aim to deliver quality homes which will be supported by local authorities. What we deliver must be contextually sensitive, reflective of the fabric of the local community and mindful of architectural heritage. For too long planning policy has encouraged quantity – let us hope that the revised NPPF will see beauty brought back in housing design and delivery.”
