Horndean Parish Village Design Statement
Horndean Village Design Statement was published in December 2002, and copies
are available from the Parish Council Offices. (Free to Horndean residents).
Alternatively view or print the document from here (PDF format).
You will require Adobe's Acrobat Reader plugin (which is commonly installed
on most PC and Mac computers) to view the pages. If you haven't used Acrobat
before, you may find it useful to look for the "magnifying glass"
symbol with a + in it, or the white box containing a % figure. Each of these
provide you with the ability to zoom in and out from the page. If your computer
doesn't currently have the Acrobat Reader plugin, you will need to download
it from the Adobe site. Click to get Acrobat Reader - on the page that appears hover your mouse over "downloads" and then click the "Free Acrobat Reader" link that appears to
the right.
A summary of the contents is shown below - simply click on an entry to view
the individual PDF page. You can then navigate through the separate pages
by clicking on the appropriate page number above the PDF screen. If you
use the mouse to point at a page number without clicking, then its contents
summary will be displayed at the bottom of the screen. The document will
open in a new window - when you've finished simply close the window (x in
top right hand corner) and this page will reappear.
If you have a fast Internet connection (primarily for ADSL/Broadband users
as the file is 8MB in size and would take approx 15mins on ISDN, 25 mins
on 56k dialup) you can download the full PDF as a single file from
the 'Complete document' link below. |
