Pinner Conservation Areas Supplementary Planning Document (SPD)
The Council is about to start work on a conservation policy document for Pinner and its twelve conservation areas. The forthcoming document will provide a strategic overview of conservation issues affecting Pinner, as well as provide policies and guidance that help to preserve and enhance the history of the area. An individual conservation area appraisal and management strategy will be prepared for each of the twelve conservation areas, to represent each area, will accompany this overarching SPD to help support and inform its policies. Each conservation area appraisal will analyse the unique characteristics and special interest features, while the linked management strategy will identify proposals and plans to preserve or enhance these qualities.
The Pinner Conservation Areas SPD, will consist of the following twelve area specific appraisals and management strategies. The twelve character appraisal and management strategies are in varying stages of development, as detailed below:

Public Consultation - Pinner's Conservation Area Appraisals and Management Strategies
Each supporting SPD draft document (identified above) will be subject to an initial round of public consultation, to encourage early involvement of residents and local interest groups in the SPD process. These supporting SPD documents will then be revised to reflect the views of the community and will be incorporated, as an appendix, within the final the Pinner Conservation Area’s SPD. Once all twelve conservation area character appraisals and management strategies have been consulted on, they will all be subject to further public consultation as part of the overarching Pinner SPD. The Council expects to consult on the final draft Pinner SPD later in 2009.
From 16th October to 13th November 2008, the Council is consulting on the Moss Lane, East End Farm and West Towers initial draft conservation character area appraisals and management strategies, subject to the formal public consultation early in 2009. Your early comments and observations are welcomed.
