Newmarket Conservation Consultation

ANYONE with an interest in Newmarket is being invited to comment on the latest Conservation Area Appraisal which is being produced by Forest Heath District Council.

The town's special character comes from the central horse training stables and yards - some small and compact, others set in spacious grounds with trainer's houses, stables, stable yards and paddocks behind high walls.

The long, wide High Street has been a centre for trading and hospitality for centuries.
This Conservation Area Appraisal adopts a street-by-street approach and covers 28 roads and approximately 185 hectares of the town. The Draft Conservation Area Appraisal can be viewed on the Forward Planning Pages of the Councils website at www.forest-heath.gov.uk
Each section gives a comprehensive overview of the areas character, what architectural or historic features make it special and any proposed changes.
The consultation runs until 5pm on Friday 7 August and comments should be sent to boyd.nicholas@forest-heath.gov.uk or post to Mr B Nicholas, Forest Heath District Council, College Heath Road, Mildenhall, IP28 7EY.
