6.20 (15) Views of the original farm buildings<br />

reinforce the rural nature of the<br />

<strong>Conservation</strong> <strong>Area</strong>, both those in<br />

agricultural use at <strong>Holdenhurst</strong> Farm<br />

and those converted to dwellings.<br />

6.22 No. 17 <strong>Holdenhurst</strong> <strong>Village</strong> and The<br />

New House (No. 16 <strong>Holdenhurst</strong> <strong>Village</strong>)<br />

on the village green are landmarks<br />

within the eastern half of <strong>Holdenhurst</strong>.<br />

The buildings are prominently sited<br />

on the green and are highly visible on<br />

approach from the south. They are<br />

a backdrop to the open space of the<br />

green and although the buildings are<br />

not as tall as the church, their scale is<br />

large within the village and they are<br />

distinctive within <strong>Holdenhurst</strong>. The<br />

dwellings can be seen in View 14 on the<br />

adjacent page.<br />

Landmarks<br />

6.21 St John’s Church is a noticeable<br />

landmark building within the village as<br />

its scale, height and materials set it<br />

apart from the brick built buildings that<br />

characterise the village. The church<br />

can be seen from various vantage<br />

points both within and outside of the<br />

<strong>Conservation</strong> <strong>Area</strong>.<br />
