Representation Summary:
Seafront public realm - suggested option, p40
The Seafront's 'special charm' is referred to (approach field, page 40) but a specific reference is needed here, and in the bullet points, to the importance of the protection and enhancement of the historic environment. PPS5 places particular emphasis on the contribution of the historic environment to sense of place.
Point 5 (p40) identifies that seafront development should not adversely impact on the Thames Estuary or Southend's beaches. This should also consider the impact on landward views from boats.
