CS27: Quality of the Historic Environment

All development will favour the conservation of heritage assets.

The integrity, setting and distinctiveness of designated and undesignated heritage assets will be protected, conserved and if appropriate enhanced.

Development will positively conserve and enhance the appearance and character of conservation areas. Negative features and problems identified in conservation area appraisals will be ameliorated or removed.

Features of known or potential archaeological interest will be surveyed, recorded and wherever possible retained.

Supplementary planning documents will provide further guidance.
