ALTERATIONS TO HOLYHEAD MOUNTAIN VILLAGE CONSERVATION AREA

Notice is hereby given that the Isle of Anglesey County Council (“the Council”) of Council Offices, Llangefni, Anglesey LL77 7TW, has determined on 11 December 2003, that the undermentioned area of Holyhead Mountain Village is of special architectural or historic interest, the character and appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance. An amended map of the Holyhead Mountain Village Conservation Area, designated under the provision of section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, may be inspected at the Planning Services office, Llangefni during normal office hours, from Monday to Friday. The main effects of the designation of the Conservation Area are as follows: 1. Conservation Area Consent will be required for the demolition of all buildings, and the alteration of parts of buildings, walls and structures (other than excepted buildings) within this area. 2. Notice of all planning applications for development which, in the opinion of the Local Planning Authority, would affect the character and appearance of the Conservation Area must be given publicity that must be taken into account when determining the application. 3. Most trees within the Conservation Area are given special protection. It is an offence to cut down, lop, top, uproot, damage or wilfully destroy a tree, subject to certain exceptions, within the Conservation Area, without giving at least 6 weeks’ notice of intent to the Local Planning Authority. The amended boundary of the Conservation Area is as follows: The south boundary of the conservation area undulates north off South Stack Road before veering northwards to the west omitting the small old quarries and the more craggy ground. To the north the boundary runs approximately along the outer edges of the Breakwater Quarries until it reaches the lane leading to Ty-mawr and beyond. The boundary to the east then follows the lane past Cae Fabli and Tyddyn Ambrose to the rear gardens of Maes Y Mynydd estate. Further information is available from: The Built Environment and Landscape Section, Planning and Environmental Services, County Council Offices, Llangefni, Anglesey LL77 7TW (tel: 01248 752461/752433).
