Conservation areas

Thorpe Conservation Area

The Thorpe Conservation Area was designated on 24 February 1970 and extended in an easterly direction 9 August 1984.

Between March 2024 and February 2025, the Council undertook a review of the Conservation Area and produced a Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan. The Council’s Planning Committee on the 26 March 2025 decided to designate the revised Conservation Area boundaries and adopt the associated Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan. This has amended the boundaries and provided additional information and guidance about this area. These changes came into effect from 1 May 2025.

The adopted Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan and the boundaries of the Conservation Area can be accessed below.
