    conservation area appraisal © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2006 Introduction The conservation area in Coddenham was originally designated by East Suffolk County Council in 1973, and inherited by Mid Suffolk District Council at its inception in 1974. The area was re- appraised and extended by Mid Suffolk District Council in 1983. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Coddenham under a number of different headings as set out in English Heritage’s new ‘Guidance on Conservation Area Appraisals’ (2006). As such it is a straightforward appraisal of Coddenham’s built environment in conservation terms. This document is neither prescriptive nor overly descriptive, but more a demonstration of ‘quality of place’, sufficient for the briefing of the Planning Officer when assessing proposed works in the area. The photographs and maps are thus intended to contribute as much as the text itself. As the English Heritage guidelines point out, the appraisal is to be read as a general overview, rather than as a comprehensive listing, and the omission of any particular building, feature or space does not imply that it is of no interest in conservation terms. Text, photographs and map overlays by Patrick Taylor, Conservation Architect, Mid Suffolk District Council 2006. © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2006 Topographical Framework The village of Coddenham is situated about six miles north-west of the county town of Ipswich in the southern part of Mid Suffolk District.
