What conservation area status means
An area the council has designated for its special architectural or historic interest. The aim is to preserve the character of the whole area, not just individual buildings.
What typically needs consent
- Trees: you typically must give the council six weeks' written notice before cutting down or pruning most trees, even where no preservation order exists. The council uses that time to decide whether to protect the tree.
- Building work: some permitted development rights are reduced, so changes that would not need planning permission elsewhere — such as certain side extensions, cladding or roof alterations — may need it here.
- Demolition of most buildings typically needs planning permission.
If the rules are not followed: Tree work without notice is an offence carrying the same penalties as TPO breaches. Unauthorised building work can lead to enforcement and an order to reverse it.
