Other forms of protection

'Listing' is the process used by English Heritage to establish protection over the most valuable examples of our built heritage. Strict rules apply to such buildings with respect to alteration, additions and the need to apply for listed building permission as well as the usual planning permission. Listing also protects the interior of the buildings where relevant.

A lesser level of protection is provided by Conservation Area designation. Again stricter planning controls exist to maintain the look and feel of a heritage area. Specific buildings within a Conservation Area may be issued with an Article 4 Directive to provide a more specific protection to the front, sides, and roof of the building. Article 4 Directives apply only to the outside of the building. They can be used to regulate styles and materials in windows and doors, and the colours used. External finishes are also controlled. Conservation Areas in Bollington and Kerridge are discussed in full on their own pages, and the relevant properties are noted on the street pages.

Cheshire East Council planners also maintain a list of buildings over which special care should be exercised when they become the subject of a planning application.
