Buckingham, Winslow & Haddenham Conservation Areas - Planning Applications
What is planned?
BUCKINGHAMSHIRE COUNCIL
NOTICE IS GIVEN that Buckinghamshire Council (“the Council”), under the provisions of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (as amended) has made changes to Conservation Areas within the local authority area (as described below) on the 21st April 2026.
The objective of designation is to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of areas of special architectural or historic interest through the control of development within the designated area and by provision of robust management plans which support good conservation practice and encourage measures to improve the historic environment.
The principal effects of the designation are:-
a) Consent must be obtained from the Council for the demolition of any building (save for excepted buildings) in the CA.
b) Special publicity must be given to planning applications for development in the CA.
c) In carrying out any functions under the Planning Acts (and, in particular, in determining applications for planning permission and listed building consent), the Council and the Secretary of State are required to take into account the desirability of preserving or enhancing the character or appearance of the CA.
d) It becomes an offence (subject to certain exceptions) to cut down, top, lop, uproot or wilfully damage any tree in the CA except where consent has been given by the Council;
e) Controls over advertisements are extended;
f) Permitted development rights are more restricted in the CA.
