Policy information sourced from City of London Leadenhall Market SPD 1 Conservation Area

The Leadenhall Market SPD comes in two parts.

Conservation Area Character Summary and Management Strategy (part 1)

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 Conservation Area Designation, Appraisal and Management: Historic England Advice Note 1 (2016).

This document is proposed to be adopted as a Supplementary Planning Document to the City of London’s Local Plan. It should be read in conjunction with relevant policies of the NPPF (2012), London Plan (2015) 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.

Listed Building Management Guidelines (part 2)

Relating solely to the Market buildings, the listed building management guidelines are intended to be a tool for the positive, proactive management of Leadenhall Market as a listed building and guide to future change. They provide a structured framework from which informed decisions can be made. They offer guidance on the special architectural and historic interest of the Market, the types of changes that may or may not require Listed Building Consent, and the conditions in which these may be acceptable.
