Respondent: Historic England

Whilst there are no designated heritage assets within the site boundary, the Earlham Conservation Area including associated listed buildings (the grade II* listed Earlham Hall and the grade II dovecote and garden wall) le to the east of the site. Any development has the potential to impact upon the setting of these designated heritage assets. There is currently no mention of these assets within the policy (or Policy COL1 to which COL 2 refers back to) or the need to conserve and where appropriate enhance the significance of these nearby heritage assets.

Suggested Change:
We suggest that the policy be amended to include reference to the heritage assets and the need to conserve and where appropriate enhance them Suggested wording: Development should conserve or where appropriate enhance the significance of nearby heritage assets including Earlham Conservation Area and associated listed buildings (noting that significance may be harmed by development within the setting of an asset) through appropriate landscaping, density and design.
