Character of Area Study
Watford Character of Area Study Adopted December 2011 0B1.0 Introduction The Borough of Watford is a well established urban centre in West Hertfordshire that contains a diverse patchwork of areas reflecting different types of built form. These character areas provide the spatial framework for local neighbourhoods and reflect the multifunctional nature of the town as a location for employment, leisure, study and residential provision. Although these areas provide a network of urban form, rich in “place identity”, they remain at risk of degradation from the pressures of new development. There is therefore a need to identify the Borough’s existing character areas and to provide a reference for guiding contextually responsive development that reinforces local character. 2.0 Urban Conservation Strategy 2.1 The need for a comprehensive study identifying character areas within the Borough was set out in the Council’s Urban Conservation Strategy, as detailed in the Watford District Plan 2000 (adopted 2003). The Urban Conservation Strategy sets out to deliver a package of different documents covering the various heritage assets within the town, including: conservation areas, Statutory Listed Buildings, Locally Listed Buildings and archaeology. The Character of the Area Study provides an overarching resource on urban form for the whole Borough and not just areas or buildings that are designated as heritage assets and referred to in the District Plan and the Urban Conservation Strategy. 2.2 The Watford District Plan 2000 and the related Supplementary Planning Guidance Note 28 (adopted 2003) includes information on Historic Environment Character Zones in Watford. This map based resource provides general information on the historical character zones that exist within the Borough and their archaeological potential.

Nationallylistedbuildings Final 2014
Nationally Listed Buildings in Watford Updated 2014 1.0 Introduction 1.1 A 'Listed Building' is a building, object or structure that has been judged to be of national historical or architectural interest. It is included on a register called the "List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest," drawn up by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. At a national level English Heritage (EH) administers the listing system on behalf of the Secretary of State. 1.2 Nationally Listed Buildings are subject to national and local policies. These are set out in: • National Planning Policy Framework (2012); • Watford District Plan 2000 (2003)*; • Watford Local Plan: Part 1: Core Strategy (2013)*; • Watford Local Plan: Part 2: Development Management Polices (draft)*. *(The Watford Local Plan replaces the Watford District Plan.) 1.3 Nationally Listed Buildings are located throughout Watford, with a concentration along The Parade and High Street. Some of the buildings are situated within Conservation Areas and are subject to the relevant planning policies concerning Conservation Areas, as well as the specific polices relating to Listed Buildings. The contents of the List of Buildings of National Interest are also included on the Historic Environment Record maintained by Hertfordshire County Council. While this does not additionally increase the level of protection afforded to the buildings, it does reinforce and aid the recognition of their contribution to the wider historic environment. 2.0 The Listing Process 2.1 The first buildings to be Nationally Listed in Watford were designated in 1952, with the most recent addition occurring in 2008.
