Bitteswell Conservation Area

2.0 Introduction

2.1 Bitteswell was awarded Conservation Area designation in 1972. A boundary amendment was made when the conservation area was re-appraised in 2005. This appraisal has been undertaken from the autumn of 2021 to summer 2022.

2.2 Conservation area status must be justified on the grounds of the special architectural or historic interest of the area. The purpose of this appraisal is to define and record the factors that give Bitteswell conservation area its special interest and justify its designation. This will help improve understanding of the historic importance of the area, how this has shaped its unique character and how it can guide its future development.

2.3 There are no proposals to make any changes to the current boundary of the Bitteswell conservation area.
