19th century houses or commercial premises which retain their original detailing. As
such, they make a positive contribution to the character and appearance of the
Conservation Area, and any proposals to alter or demolish such buildings will be
strongly resisted by the Council (see Policy EQ13 of the UDP of 1995). Together,
these buildings provide the cohesive and interesting historic townscape which is
necessary to justify designation as a Conservation Area.
