Opening Statement
Architectural and Environmental Design Statement.
Lowick Parish Council
March 2015
This document is intended to reflect the nature of the buildings around the village of Lowick with a view to maintaining its architectural and historical heritage for future generations.
It is hoped this will aid the future development of the village, by protecting and enhancing the achievements of the past; by allowing a continued appreciation and understanding of the village’s history and location; and by influencing the design and siting of new development that does not destroy its heritage by hiding it, by demolishing it, or by destroying its essential qualities.
We hope that the village will continue to be home to a community that enjoys, adapts and uses its present amenities; enjoys, reflects on, understands and protects its past; and is confident in building anew to accommodate new homes, and new places of work, leisure, belief and culture.
