About the Development Brief and Design Code

The Great Barford Neighbourhood Plan 2020-2030 sets out that the development at Land West of Great Barford under Policy H1 is required to have a Development Brief and Design Code prepared for the site.

A Development Brief and Design Code are documents which sets out the key principles and parameters for the future development and explains how these meet local and national planning policies.

A Design Code guides the design of the new homes and open space to ensure high standards of character, quality and variety are achieved.

The Development Brief and Design Code for Millfield End will define the extent of land required for the 500 new homes and associated open spaces. The document will also provide a summary of the technical analysis of the allocated site, which has been used to identify the best possible areas for development.
