Relatively generous plot sizes and informal positioning of buildings and outbuildings typify Termonfeckin. This feature combined with the hedgerows and mature vegetation provides effective screening of individual properties.
The variability between largest and smallest plot is a major element of the character of the village, contributing to its visual variety.
Buildings on smaller plots often front the street directly, creating focal points. Larger buildings tend to be well back into plots, giving seclusion and breaking up any sense of ribbon development.
Maintenance of the variability of plot size, particularly in new developments, is important to the character of the village, and should be observed. The informal positioning of buildings and outbuildings on their plots aids screening and is appropriate to the village character.
