Description and Table of Contents
Description
Since 1947 the whole country has come to be covered by development plans, and elected planning committees have controlled new construction and changes in the use of buildings. John M. Hall explains how planning has evolved, what kinds of plan are drawn up for what areas, and emphasizes that the planners, although influential, are but a small segment in the development sequence. Six case studies are presented for localities ranging from London's deserted docklands to Cumbria's coastal fringe nuclear site at Windscale, which show different conflicts of interest and varying methods of adjudication.
