There are currently 15 conservation areas in our District. They vary greatly in character and appearance and include urban, rural and natural landscapes. Twelve of our conservation areas have a character appraisal or statement, which summarises the area's special character and appearance and makes recommendations for its appropriate preservation and enhancement.
The conservation areas at Stow Maries Aerodrome and the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation do not yet have a review and appraisal, but other documents are available which inform their sensitive management.
