Views sought on plan to preserve conservation area

The public have been asked to share their views on how best to preserve a conservation area which runs the length of the River Wey.

Waverley Borough Council (WBC) has published a report reviewing the current condition of the Godalming Navigations Conservation Area, which also identifies opportunities to protect it for the future.

This conservation area, which starts at the border between Waverley and Guildford and ends at Town Bridge in Godalming, is one of 43 in Waverley.

Councillor Liz Townsend, WBC's portfolio holder for planning and economic development, said the repot was "an important step in understanding what makes the area special and how we can protect and enhance it for the future".

The conservation area has one Grade II listed building, Catteshall Grange, and three heritage features including Catteshall Lock, according to the council.

Other significant areas include the two eastern fields of the Lammas Lands and Farncombe Boat House.

The consultation runs until 20 February, with the draft appraisal available to view online.

A public meeting will be held on 22 January at 19:00 GMT at Waverley Borough Council offices.
