Introduction 1.1 Pendle Borough Council has a duty under the Planning (Listed Building and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 to designate as conservation areas any ‘areas of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance’. Where an area has special architectural or historic interest, a conservation area character appraisal is a way of recording and evaluating this. An appraisal should assess all the factors that are considered to create this special interest, which may include current and past land uses, topography, types and styles of buildings, architectural details or historic development. 1.2 A character appraisal is the first step in a dynamic process, the aim of which is to preserve and enhance the character and appearance of a conservation area. It defines, records and analyses the architecture and history of buildings and spaces, leading to an understanding of their townscape value and significance, and thus to establishing the qualities that make the area special. The appraisal can then provide a baseline for decisions about the area’s future, as well as a useful tool for education and information. 1.3 The Calf Hall and Gillians Conservation Area was designated in September 2005, as an extension to the existing Barnoldswick Conservation Area, designated in 1997 to include much of the town centre. The new Conservation Area covers the rising semi- rural land to the south and west of the town, and includes elements which clearly indicate the historical development of the town from its early agricultural origins through to a later textile-based economy.
