Conservation Area Boundary & Character Areas

The Council is exploring adjusting the Rochdale Town Centre Conservation Area boundary to make sure that the buildings and spaces afforded Conservation Area status are appropriately protected, and that parts of the existing conservation area that include modern industrial buildings that do not or no longer merit such status are removed.

1a. Do you agree that the proposed conservation area boundary extension to include a greater proportion of Broadfield Park should be included within the Rochdale Town Centre conservation area boundary, in recognition of the contribution to the proposed Civic Centre character area?
1b. Do you agree that the proposed conservation area boundary extension to include the graveyard for the divorced opposite the Rochdale Parish Church of St Chad should be included within the Rochdale Town Centre conservation area boundary, in recognition of the historical and communal values associated with this area?
1c. Do you agree that the highlighted areas of modern buildings, car parking and areas no longer worthy of conservation area status should be removed from the Rochdale Town Centre Conservation Area?
1d. Do you agree that the proposed revised Character Areas accurately reflect the sense of place afforded by these designations?
