B-EN 4: Historic Environment

Planning permission will not be granted for development that would result in the loss of or damage to the heritage assets in BNF-8 or their settings, unless the loss is clearly outweighed by the public benefit that would result from the development. Of particular importance to the historic environment of Burpham are the following seven historic assets (noting this is not an all-inclusive list. See Appendix 7 for detailed listing.)

  • Sutherland Memorial Park (War Memorial: SMR 20131).
  • Pimms Row cottages and area (SMR 7952).
  • St Luke’s Church (SMR 7953).
  • New Inn Farm House and Lilac Cottage (SMR 8862).
  • Bowers lock (SMR 15925).
  • Royal Mail pillar box in Kingpost Parade - Edward VIII locally listed (SMR 3421).
  • The gate houses & gates of Sutton Park (SMR 8671).

Planning proposals must have regard to the character assessment for the respective area of Burpham. The effect of a planning application on a non-designated heritage asset must also be taken into account when determining the application. Appendices 2 & 7 form part of this Policy.
