Conservation of the built environment

The high quality built environment of the area, with its wealth of historic buildings, conservation areas and archaeological sites and monuments, represents an important social, cultural, recreational and educational resource as well as helping to make it an appealing place to live, work and visit.

The council’s Regeneration Section provides conservation advice on listed buildings, conservation areas, historic parks and gardens, scheduled monuments and other heritage assets outside the Peak District National Park.

If you live in the National Park you should contact the Peak District National Park Authority who are responsible for planning and heritage issues within the national park area.
