London’s Natural Signatures, the London Regional Landscape Framework
' London ’s Natural Signatures', a new report produced for Natural England by Alan Baxter and Sheils Flynn, aims to reconnect Londoners with the underlying and often hidden natural landscapes of the city. From the wooded ridges of north London to the marshlands in the east and downs to the south the new report describes twenty two distinct natural landscape areas, each with its own unique identity.
Design guidelines for each area aim to ensure that the regeneration and renewal of London ’s urban landscape works with, rather than against, London ’s natural character.
At the Landscape Institute London Branch AGM, Jane Wilson, Landscape and Geodiversity Senior Specialist at Natural England will introduce the project and William Filmer-Sankey, Senior Associate at Alan Baxter Associates will outline the methodology and results.
