Parks, leisure and the arts Wilbraham Road / Edge Lane Conservation Area

Conclusion

Analysis of the characteristics should enable new developments, extensions and alterations to be designed so as to complement, or at least maintain, the character of the area.

Generally, demolition of existing buildings and boundary walls should not be considered unless it can be clearly shown that new proposals on such sites will maintain or enhance the character of the area.

Particular attention will be given to overall scale, density, massing, height, landscape, site layout and access of new development in relation to neighbouring buildings and to the wider area.

This should not be seen as an attempt to impose particular architectural styles or tastes, nor is it intended to stifle innovation or originality. It is however seeking to promote and reinforce local distinctiveness.
