A conservation area is an area of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which the council aims to preserve or enhance. Eastbourne has 12 conservation areas.

 

Planning applications in conservation areas are subject to more regulations than a standard application. Applications for work in conservation areas are considered by the Conservation Area Advisory Group which then makes recommendations to Planning Committee.
