Development constraints
Listed buildings and structures are protected by the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Accordingly, consent is required for any internal or external works which go beyond repair and maintenance and which affect the character of the listed building as one of special architectural or historic interest. The setting of listed buildings is also an important aspect of their character, therefore it is a material consideration.
