Princes Park Conservation Area To Be Extended |
|
The Princes Park conservation area in Liverpool is to be extended to include two leafy roads lined with Victorian villas.
It will now encompass Greenheys Road and Bentley Road following a request by local residents, supported by local councillors, through the Greenheys Road Forum.
Houses in these roads were built in the mid-Victorian period and have a complementary character and history to the rest of of the conservation area.

Councillor Malcolm Kennedy, cabinet member for regeneration, said: "This plan will give additional protection to the heritage of this area. The feedback we had from the consultation has been very positive."
Conservation area status does not prevent new developments but means:
• Any proposed demolition of buildings is subject to greater controls with a presumption that there should be no demolition of architecturally or historically significant buildings
• There is greater consideration given to the design of new buildings and structures in planning decisions
• Minor works, not normally subject to planning permission, such as replacing windows and adding minor extensions are subject to greater controls
