MACCLESFIELD BOROUGH COUNCIL

Planning (Listed Building and Conservation Areas) Act 1990

Lyme Park Conservation Area

Notice is hereby given that the Macclesfield Borough Council, in pursuance of its powers under section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, has designated the Lyme Park Conservation Area.   The Conservation Area has been designated because it is of special architectural or historic interest, the character and appearance of which it is desirable to preserve and enhance.   The boundary of the Conservation Area includes several lodges and a cottage and covers north-westerly sections of Lyme Park within Disley, Lyme Handley and Pott Shrigley parishes. A plan showing the full boundaries of the area, together with an explanation leaflet on Conservation Areas, may be obtained from Macclesfield Borough Council, Planning Department, Town Hall, Macclesfield, Cheshire SK10 1DP.   The designation of an area has several formal consequences including the control of the demolition of certain buildings, a requirement for consent to development which would not otherwise need permission; the need for consent to carry out works on trees and a requirement to advertise planning applications affecting the character and appearance of the area. J. B. Hillaby, Principal Administrative Officer
