Conservation Areas<br />

Advice from Sue Drew of Dobbs & Drew<br />

Local authorities have the power to designate as conservation areas, any area of<br />

special architectural or historic interest. This means the planning authority has<br />

extra powers to control works and demolition of buildings to protect or improve<br />

the character or appearance of the area.<br />

The designation of a Conservation Area will affect an area in a number of ways.<br />

For example, the permitted development rights of the properties within the<br />

conservation area will be affected. In normal circumstances, householders have certain<br />

‘Permitted Development’ rights to carry out minor works to their properties, without<br />

requiring planning permission, such as small extensions and new garden sheds.<br />

In Conservation Areas, ‘Permitted Development’ rights are reduced and works,<br />

which normally don’t require permission do, some of these are listed below:<br />

• The insertion of dormer windows into roof slopes<br />

• The erection of satellite dishes on walls, roofs or chimneys fronting a highway<br />

• Changes to walls and fences or other means of enclosure<br />

• The size of house and industrial extensions that may be carried out without<br />

specific planning permission is also more restricted. Certain demolition works may<br />

also require consent in conservation areas<br />

• Replacement external windows and doors may require planning permission.<br />

Living in a Conservation Area requires householders to respect the special character<br />

or appearance of the area when making changes affecting the outside of their properties.<br />

Trees in a conservation area that are already protected by a Tree Preservation Order<br />

are subject to the normal procedures and controls for any tree covered by such an<br />

Order.<br />

Trees in a conservation area that are not protected by a Tree Preservation Order<br />

are protected by the provisions in section 211 of the Town and Country Planning Act<br />

1990. These provisions require people to notify the local planning authority, using a<br />

‘section 211 notice’, six weeks before carrying out certain work on such trees, unless<br />

an exception applies. The work may go ahead before the end of the six-week period<br />

if the local planning authority gives consent. This notice period gives the authority an<br />

opportunity to consider whether to make an Order on the tree.<br />
