What is an Urban Conservation Area?
The Trust has listed on its Register many areas in cities and country towns as Urban Conservation Areas. These areas have an overall townscape, architectural or historic character which, in the Trust’s view, should be conserved even though not every individual building in the area is significant. The Trust requests owners, developers and local councils to ensure that any new development within an Urban Conservation Area is designed to be in harmony with the heritage significance of the Area. Once again, listing by the Trust has no legal force.
