Designated conservation areas, character appraisals, management plans and maps
You can find an interactive map showing all of our conservation areas here.
In addition to the initial designation, as a local authority, we also have a duty to assess the special interest, character and appearance of all conservation areas. We must consider any additions or changes to their boundaries, and present proposals for their enhancement and management.
