Designating conservation areas: Patterns in time and space

Larkham, Peter J.

Concern has been expressed over the number and type of conservation areas designated in the UK since 1967, focusing in particular on the years from 1989. The alleged rise in numbers of designated areas and the potential ‘debasement of the coinage’ parallels the rise of the ‘plan‐led planning system’. The importance of this debate lies in the increased controls over development, including aesthetic issues and demolition control, possible in such designated areas. This paper uses English Heritage data to review patterns of designation and amendment, concluding that the concern over excessive designation appears to be unfounded, but that development plan reviews are now a major impetus for review, amendment, new designations and (possibly) de‐designations.
