Making Places
Rural communities in Sussex have never been under greater pressure for housing – some villages such as Tangmere near Chichester have been asked to nearly double in size. However, although the residents living in these settlements are undoubtedly the planners’ most valuable resource, their views are frequently being ignored.
CPRE Sussex’s ‘Making Places’ project aims to bridge the gulf that often exists between a developer’s ‘blueprints’ and a neighbourhood’s own vision for the future. To this end the Campaign has produced a manual which it hopes will be used by both local communities and decision makers at all levels.
