Policy information sourced from City of London Fleet Street Conservation Area Character Summary and Management Strategy SPD

This character summary and management strategy provides an understanding of the significance of the conservation area by identifying and analysing its principal characteristics. It does not include specific detail about every building and feature within the area, and any omission from the text should not be interpreted as an indication of lesser significance. The character summary and management strategy has been prepared in line with the Historic England document Understanding Place: Conservation Area Designation, Appraisal and Management (2011).

The original character summary was adopted in 1996. This document comprises an updated character summary and added management strategy. It was adopted as a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) to the City of London Corporation’s Local Plan on 23rd February 2016. It should be read in conjunction with the Local Plan and other guidance, including Conservation Areas in the City of London, A General Introduction to their Character (1994) which has more information on the history and character of the City.
