EN3 - Demolition in Conservation Areas

Proposals involving the demolition of a non-listed building in Conservation Areas will be assessed against the contribution to the architectural or historic interest of the area made by that building.

Buildings that make a positive contribution to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area should be conserved. Where a building makes no significant contribution to the area, consent for demolition will be given subject to submission and approval of a detailed plan for redevelopment or after use of the site.
