Reigate Shop Front Design SPG
This section provides information about Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) on shop front design.
Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) is produced by the Borough Council to provide extra guidance on and the interpretation of Local Plan policies.
The Reigate Shop Front Design SPG was adopted on 11 March 1993, and updated in 1999.
Its purpose:
- to outline recent problems which have caused some reduction in the quality of shop front design in Reigate
- to detail how to harmonise shopfronts with the age and design features of the rest of the building
- to set out principles to achieve good quality shop signs
- to consider other issues affecting shop fronts, including blinds and security
- to identify the types of shopfronts found in Reigate.
Key message
Good shopfront design is essential if the character of Reigate, and its attractiveness to shoppers, is to be conserved and enhanced.Download the SPG
Grants
Please note the Council does not have a grant scheme for making changes to shop fronts.
