Bourn Conservation Area Appraisal & Management Plan

Consultation runs from: 31 October 2025 9:00am - 28 November 2025 5:00pm

We are currently consulting on the Bourn Conservation Area Appraisal & Management Plan. There are a series of survey questions set out below for you to add your representations to in response to the PDF attached.

Question 1: Do you live within the existing conservation area boundary?

Question 2: Do you support maintaining the current conservation area boundary?

Bourn Conservation Area was designated on 4th December 1974 and extended on 8th May 1997. Following assessment the current boundary is not proposed to be changed. Please answer Yes / No.

Question 3: If No, are there any areas which you think should be added to, or removed from, the conservation area, and why?

Question 4: Do you agree with the list of buildings marked on the conservation area maps as potential ‘non-designated heritage assets’?

A number of buildings in the conservation area have been identified as ‘non-designated heritage assets’. Although not nationally listed, these are considered to be of local importance because of their architectural and/ or historic interest, their landmark status, communal function, association to locally important individuals or families, or a combination of these. These could be considered for inclusion on any subsequent Local Heritage List. Please answer - All / Some / None.

Question 5: If you support identification of some buildings, which ones?

Question 6: Are there any other buildings or structures which should be added to this list?

Question 7: Do you support the proposed key views within, into and out of the conservation area as shown on the conservation area map?

Please answer Yes / No / Yes with alterations.

Question 8: Do you think any views should be added to, or removed from, this list, and why?

Question 9: Are there any areas or buildings within the boundary that detract from the conservation area, or could be improved to enhance the conservation area? Why do they detract? In what ways could they be improved?

An essential part of a Conservation Area Appraisal is an effective Management Strategy. In this section, parts of the conservation area which could be enhanced can be identified, along with actions to be taken to best manage the conservation area.
