Policy information sourced from the Campton & Chicksands Neighbourhood Plan
LHP2 Built Heritage
Development proposals that would adversely affect the built heritage of the Parish (as identified in Appendix 5 and Appendix 6 to this Plan), or would have a harmful impact on its setting, will not be supported.
Encouragement will be given to schemes which pay particular regard to the need to conserve and where possible enhance both the setting of heritage assets, and their architectural, archaeological or historic features of significance.
The policy also supports the following: -
- Presumption against demolition or destruction of a heritage asset unless it can be demonstrated that the asset cannot realistically be repaired or restored
- Restoration, renovation and repair which restores former documented use or appearance
- Nomination for placement on the Historic England “Heritage@ Risk Register” for any heritage asset considered to be in a poor or deteriorating condition
