West Ella is as beautiful conservation area, characterised by delightful white wash properties and lattice windows.
Conservation areas are areas of special historic and architectural interest, and their designation provides protection to the areas which define the local and national identity. The value of these areas stems not just from the buildings, open spaces, street scene, landscape and history, but also from how these elements combine to create an attractive and striking whole.
The local authority, in designating conservation areas, is seeking to preserve and enhance their character and appearance, however, this is not to say that change cannot happen in conservation areas but rather that change should be managed in a way that better reveals their special character.
