Conservation area appraisals

The character of each conservation area is different and special in its own way. Through understanding elements that should be conserved and elements that could be enhanced, we can manage change so that each conservation area's special character can be retained and enjoyed by all.

We have set out what is special about each conservation area and how we can conserve and enhance it in our conservation area appraisals. There is one for each conservation area, although some are still being updated.

The appraisals are used to help us make decisions on planning applications in conservation areas and the guidance they contain aims to help owners look after the character of their homes.
