St Andrew's Conservation Area survey

St Andrew’s Dock Conservation Area was adopted by Hull City Council in 1990 and provides heritage protection to Hull’s former fish dock and its associated ancillary buildings. The Council are in the process of reviewing all of its Conservation Areas, with St Andrew’s Dock being the thirteenth area to have been reviewed and subject to public consultation.

For St Andrew’s Dock, the following proposals are being subject to public consultation -

• the adoption of a new Conservation Area Character Appraisal

Following public consultation relevant amendments will be undertaken to the proposed boundary changes and management documents, and they will be returned to Committee and Cabinet for formal adoption.

To inform on the special interest and reasons why an area is designated as a Conservation Area, a Council can adopt a ‘Character Appraisal’ document. A Character Appraisal will include information such as a definition of the special interest of the Conservation Area, will explain the character of its built and natural environment, and will identify key elements such as buildings, open spaces and views.
