Paragraph 8.53 should be amended to recognise that not all heritage assets are designated and should read: 'Proposals affecting designated and non-designated Ipswich heritage assets should be informed by the Historic Environment Record for Suffolk maintained by the County Council...' Further explanation of why the area of archaeological importance has been designated could be set out. Features in this area have been internationally recognised and the town's long history, particularly maritime, is important for sustaining the town's identity as well as marketing the town to visitors and businesses.
