Modifications to this Policy are not proposed, however our previous representations (Barton Willmore, March 2015) highlighted concerns regarding Part b. "Conservation Areas" which states that the position, height, mass and materials of a proposed building shall pay regard to the character of adjoining buildings. This is not objected to however, the weight that should be attached to the character of buildings should be proportionate to their status and this should be reflected in the Policy wording to ensure that it is 'justified'. [Note - DM8 Part b Conservation Areas has been modified.]
