KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Open Space
An open space is an area within a *conservation area that has been specially designated for planning and environmental protection purposes.
The designation is made by the Secretary of State for the Environment.
Because of its recognized importance, the area requires “special attention” in planning decisions and development control.
Open spaces may include parks, gardens, squares, or undeveloped land that contributes to the character and appearance of the conservation area.
Planning authorities must therefore consider the impact of proposed developments on the preservation and character of such spaces.
