Identification

Title

Ipswich Urban Character Areas

Abstract

The boundaries represent the edges of defined urban character areas. These are areas with shared physical characteristics which distinguish them from adjoining areas, for example land use, topography, architectural style, tree cover. There is a lengthy document demonstrating the shared physical characteristics for each urban character area. The document is intended to be used within the context of the planning system. As a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD), its content is a ‘material consideration’ in Development Control; that is, decisions on planning applications can be influenced by the content of the document. It can be used by planning officers, developers or the general public, and is published on the Council’s website alongside other Development Control documents such as Conservation Area Appraisals.

Lineage

The data resource was researched through on-site observations, interviews with local residents and desk based research (maps, historic maps and photographs, local history publications, GIS database information about drainage, tree cover, topography, transport, land use). Because the data resource describes the physical appearance of an area, updating will only be necessary when new construction or some other measurable physical change takes place, for instance the creation of a new cycle path.
