building on history

a digital toolkit for communities

Conservation Area

If your place is a large area, you could ask your local council to make it into a conservation area. Historic England has lots of information about Conservation Areas and how they are created.

You can also get in touch with your local authority for guidance on local conservation areas.

How to use this digital toolkit:

1. On the start page of the toolkit there are pictures of lots of different types of heritage. Click on the one that feels closest to the heritage you would like to celebrate.

2. Once you have clicked on your type of heritage, the page will describe this kind of heritage and include some pictures. If you think this is not the right type of heritage click the go home button to return to your options.

3. Read through the page. At the bottom there will be some links to other pages or other websites to help you celebrate your heritage. Either follow these to another website or to another page in the toolkit which will give you more information.

You can always ask your facilitator to help if you are struggling.
