South Tyneside's Local List
Why we need a Local List
The government requires local planning authorities to set out a positive, proactive strategy for heritage assets in their area.
We must consider the contribution these assets make to South Tyneside's sense of place.
A Local List is a way for our community and the 兔子先生 to come together and decide what should be a local heritage asset.
This allows us to protect our historic environment and help developers understand:
- where our heritage assets are
- why they are worth protecting
Being on the list does not mean there are any extra planning controls for buildings, structures, or spaces.
However, before any planning decisions are made, their importance to the local area will be considered.
