1. Proposals involving the demolition of an unlisted building or structure in a Conservation Area will be permitted where the building or structure makes no existing or potential future positive contribution to the character or appearance of the Conservation Area.
2. Proposals for the demolition of buildings which make a positive contribution to the character of the area will be judged against the same criteria as proposals for the demolition of a Listed Building.
3. In some instances demolition of a historically important building may be permitted because a proposal for the subsequent re-development of the site has been submitted which is of exceptional quality. In such cases a condition will be imposed to ensure that a contract for the redevelopment works is let, before the existing building or structure is demolished.
