Tougher conservation rules for Blackpool town centre to stop sub-standard developments
Tougher powers have been adopted to protect Blackpool town centre from poor development deemed out of character with the resort’s rich history.
The Conservation Area stretches from Central Promenade to Topping Street and parts of Caunce Street, and from Springfield Road to Adelaide Street. As well as key landmarks such as the Grade I listed Tower, it covers many smaller but historic landmarks such as Central Library, the Stanley Buildings and the former Woolworth’s building with its clock tower.
“Badly designed unauthorised signage is a problem across the whole of the Conservation Area. For the time being enhancements will be sought through the development management system for the majority of the Conservation Area, although more targeted intervention in the form of a grant-aided scheme may be the needed in the future if the opportunity arises.”
