Most people have heard of conservation areas but few fully understand how a conservation area works.
The draft appraisal for the Alkborough conservation area provides an explanation of the workings of a conservation area and an assessment of Alkbrough's character and appearance.
There is also what is known as draft supplementary planning advice. This elaborates on the council's existing policies for conservation areas contained in its local plan. It also suggests some future courses of action to help preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area.
If you wish to comment on the conservation area appraisal, download and fill in the response form to let us know what you think.
We would like to hear from anyone who lives, works, or uses facilities in the Alkborough conservation area and has opinions about its charatcter, appearance and condition. People who live in the local area will also have opinions and we would be pleased to hear from them as well.
Copies of all the above documents can be viewed by prior appointment with the Clerk to Alkborough Parish Council - Mrs H M Hindess, 'Hunters Moon', Whitton Road, Alkborough, DN15 9JG - and at Pittwood House and Church Square House in Scunthorpe.
