Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021

Representation ID: 29157

Received: 29/03/2021

Respondent: Historic England

Representation Summary:

The site is adjacent to the Little Germany Conservation Area and close to a number of Listed Buildings. The development of this area could harm elements which contribute to the significance of these designated heritage assets. The site is currently allocated for development within the Bradford City Centre Area Action Plan (AAP), adopted in December 2017. The principle of allocating this site, for the nature and scale of development set out in the APP, has therefore been recently established as part of the Local Development Plan for Bradford District.
In order to safeguard these heritage assets, we would expect the Local Plan requirements for this site relating to the conservation and enhancement of the historic environment to, as a minimum, reflect those set out in the AAP. Consequently, we welcome that the Development Considerations and Constraints & Opportunities
identified for this site in the Draft Local Plan reflect those in the AAP. N.B. The AAP allocation reference number
for this site is CH1.11 and not M1.3 as set out in the prof forma.
