Local plan scoping consultation
Respondent: Mr Community Campaigner David Barton
Representation Summary:
The respondent recommends stronger measures to protect heritage assets and discourage unnecessary demolition. They call for local authorities to identify repeat applicants associated with heritage loss, introduce stricter enforcement against deliberate neglect of historic buildings, and develop action plans, financial incentives and design codes to support conservation. The respondent advocates greater public consultation, stronger partnerships with heritage organisations, property owners and community groups, and more proactive support for buildings at risk. They also support accessibility improvements that preserve historic character, enhanced monitoring of vulnerable heritage assets, and evidence-based assessments of restoration projects. Overall, they seek a more robust, collaborative and preventative approach to heritage conservation.
Full text:
1. Identify recurring applicants that are harming civic heritage, be this across
Conservation Areas, Non-designated heritage assets or elsewhere with experience of
demolition to date- this should be considered before granting permission to apply or
acquire planning approval.
2. Enforcement Penalties for key stakeholders that purposely allow their properties to
fall into decline and hoped eventual demolition through this tactic, which is more
prevalent since 2020.
3. Create an Action Plan to deter persons or organisations from pursuing demolition,
such as financial incentives, sincere investor network directory set by Central
Government to offload for profit and enforced Design Codes that cannot be
manipulated through semantics like Design Guides in isolation as has happened
elsewhere. This must be kept for emergency instances where there is an expected
threat of decline or demolition.
4. Agreed that temporary alteration of heritage sites, such as stairs or ramps for
wheelchairs should be utilised to prevent deleterious loss of historic surroundings
and features alike.
5. Full Pre-Consultation publicised and utilised to ensure appropriate Design Codes for
new housing alongside positioning and layout in case volunteer assemblies may
assist property owners with restoration of historic buildings.
6. Brick by brick Analysis undertaken of projects set for Traditional reconstruction so
that these statistics may provide both the Council with evidence for green grant
funding support for other key infrastructure projects, such as Transportation and Drainage Defences and property owners may incur a discretionary reduction in
associated reconstruction costs of heritage buildings and vistas.
7. Ability to lock feedback in for Consultation automatically unless the council can alert
interested consultees in taking part again whether they are locally, regionally or
nationally based.
8. Special partnerships with Property Owners of historic buildings at risk of decline/
demolition to discreetly support them with the option to publicise this accordingly to
reach out to others in the same position to secure alternative use for these
structures as opposed to demolition.
9. Proactive effort to stop Breaking and Entering style of “Urban Explorers” who are
coincidentally apparent whenever demolition is scheduled for buildings especially
since 2020.
10. LAs to proactively work closely alongside Community Champions and other leading
Heritage Groups, such as English Heritage giving these organisations a voice on the
frontlines, especially where so many buildings are presently being overlooked for
additional guidance and/ or support due to cost and time restraints facing these
same groups and organisations (including the LA).

Local plan scoping consultation
Respondent: Mr Community Campaigner David Barton
Representation Summary:
The respondent proposes a range of measures to support heritage conservation, traditional design and community-led regeneration. They advocate greater support for the reconstruction and restoration of historic buildings, provision of heritage-style street furniture, improved access to archive resources and stronger collaboration between councils, investors, property owners and volunteers. The respondent also calls for infrastructure improvements, including adoption of unadopted roads and assessment of air quality impacts from development. They support traditional architectural styles, enhanced protection for historic buildings at risk, and measures to encourage investment in heritage-led projects. Overall, they seek a planning approach that prioritises long-term conservation, sustainability and local character.

1. Provide all possible support for the reconstruction of Old Builds as is happening
elsewhere across Europe, especially Budapest, Hungary, North America, etc to
significantly increase Embodied Energy/ Carbon storage.
2. Establish a Plan to adopt Unadopted Roads or supply key services, such as
carriageway resurfacing as disabled access and entry/ exit of Emergency Vehicles is
presently a cause for concern.
3. Provide Pre-Approval and agreement of specialist Conservation Area style Historic
Street Furniture, such as Cast Iron Lamp Posts, Bins and Planters for this prime
Conservation Area including installation, maintenance costs (where appropriate).
4. Provide full access to the Archive Resources (at no/minimal cost) as an invaluable
incentive for existing and parallel undisclosed third Party Investors. Discretionary
waivers may be appropriate for those third parties proactively working to prevent
decline and demolition of historic buildings.
5. Car Parking on and off street should be supported to ensure freedom of choice for
everyone, accessibility and connectedness.
6. Car Parking abodes should be tastefully designed like modern-day stables for
vehicles that are in-keeping with the built historic environment.
7. Provide publicly published names of consultees willing to work alongside the Local
authority and other key stakeholders, such as property owners and undisclosed third
party investors, etc. 8. Provide select tours for prospective investors and housebuilders of existing
traditional architecture where Design Codes of this identical style would
complement both old and new architecture bending the area better more
cohesively, eg. the form and layout of Oxford City Centre which has changed
minimally structurally since the 1800s.
9. Provide a focused effort on utilising people’s skillsets on a meritocratic basis, ie.
Procure specialists and volunteers that could work together on key emergency
projects, such as Historic buildings at risk without layered bureaucracy on achieving
positive outcomes, such as Community Assets where deadlines can be thwarted by
separate third parties.
10. Create a Top Ten Historic Buildings at Risk Register where appropriate conditions,
such as security against Urban Exploration, etc can be utilised safeguarding these
structures, providing the respective property owners peace of mind whilst actual
scope for revitalising these for solid economic gain.
11. Infrastructure assessments should be fully outlined, such as Air Quality risk from new
construction at presently congested areas, hence the case for Traditional
Architecture that will confer longevity benefits in the long-term with as much free
car parking as possible.
12. Free Car Parking may be monitored through expected proof of purchase when
visiting, eg. minimal £1.00 at a shop encouraging partnerships between private
businesses and LAs.
