Reasons

 

The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) requires local authorities to ensure that local heritage is protected. This is done by understanding local heritage assets and managing change to ensure that the significance is not harmed. The criteria for assessing Local Heritage Assets is therefore important to ensure that local heritage assets are appropriately managed and their significance is not harmed. The criteria from Cherwell District Council will help provide long term protection for the heritage of the District.
