An exhibtion was held at Ickwell Village Hall on Saturday 26th February to launch a month long public consultation exercise into a review of the exisitng conservation area.

The review considers the setting, character and appearance of the conservation area and areas in need of enhancement are also identified. The public consultation period ended on Wednesday, 30th March 2005, however, the consultation documents are still available for download on the right of this page.

Three additions and two subtractions are proposed to the conservation area. The most significant addition being proposed is Ickwell Bury and part of its registered park and garden whilst paddocks to the south of properties on the south side of The Green and 'The Ingle', Northill Road are also proposed to be added. The two subtractions are relatively minor to iron out minor anomalies in the original conservation are boundary.

Ickwell Conservation Area was designated on 6th October 1971 and has not been reviewed since. This review is one of a series being carried out by Mid BEdfordshire District Council and will enable Development Control to determine whether proposals preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area.
