  • Highfield Cottages Conservation Area
    Derby Conservation Areas Highfield Cottages INTRODUCTION The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 requires Local Planning Authorities to determine areas of special architectural or historic interest, ‘the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance’. These areas are called Conservation Areas. Derby is a city of considerable historic interest and architectural merit with a range of streets and buildings spanning many centuries. In an effort to conserve important elements of our built heritage, the City Council have designated fifteen such areas. The City Centre and Friar Gate Conservation Areas are at the heart of the city centre. Seven are based on aspects of Victorian Derby (Railway, Arboretum, Little Chester, Strutts Park and Hartington Street, Highfield Cottages, Leylands Estate, Nottingham Road) and the remaining five are focused on former village centres (Darley Abbey, Mickleover, Spondon, Allestree and Markeaton). This document outlines the history and mentions some of the exceptional buildings contained within one of these areas. There are legal requirements and constraints which apply to Conservation Areas which do not apply elsewhere and the City Council therefore must pay special attention to the ‘character’ and ‘appearance’ of these areas when exercising its planning powers. This is a positive process in which a continuing effort is being made to control the nature and scale of change. With the exception of certain buildings, no building in a Conservation Area can be demolished without consent from the Local Authority. This is enforced to maintain some of the more ordinary buildings that nevertheless contribute a great deal to the character of the area.

  • Derby's Locally Listed Buildings
    City of Derby City of Derby Local List Local List CITY OF DERBY Introduction This list identifies buildings and other structures within Derby which are considered to have some local importance, either from an architectural or historic viewpoint. The list has been revised from the previously published list of 1993, following a public consultation period in 2007. Along with the review of the existing list, people were also invited to nominate new buildings for inclusion on the revised list. The new list was approved by Council Cabinet in July 2010 and is organised in alphabetical order by ward. None of the buildings or structures are included in Derby’s Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. Some may, in the future, be considered worthy of national listing. The local list seeks to include buildings which are of merit in their own right, those which are worthy of group value in the street scene and any other feature which is considered to be worthy of conservation because it makes a positive contribution to the local environment. The list contains examples of different architectural styles from many periods, including those of relatively recent origins. It does not include locally important buildings that are located within any of the 15 conservation areas in Derby, as these buildings are afforded greater protection through the planning control process. The value of publishing a local list is that a watching brief can be kept on these buildings or structures and they can be taken into account in the town planning process. Inclusion in the list, however, does not afford any additional statutory protection or grant aid, but it is the Council’s intention that every reasonable effort will be made to conserve those buildings and structures of local importance to benefit the city as a whole.
