6.12 (7) The floodplain of the Stour<br />

is evident to the north of the<br />

<strong>Conservation</strong> <strong>Area</strong>. The River Stour<br />

itself is not visible, but the land<br />

is different in appearance to the<br />

surrounding farmland by virtue of being<br />

flat and low lying.<br />

6.14 (9) There are sufficient trees in the<br />

village to create a funnelling effect<br />

in places. On Throop Road the eye is<br />

drawn towards the pretty cottage,<br />

with the white of The Old Forge (No.<br />

14 <strong>Holdenhurst</strong> <strong>Village</strong>) standing out<br />

against the green of the trees.<br />
