My first appraisal – recognising that the most difficult section to write is the one defining character. It requires a deep appreciation and grasp of the settlement’s morphology, history, the evolution of its building stock, its access to materials and so on, but also critically its uniqueness – which demands a very broad understanding of the characteristics that define place regionally and nationally.
