Not to take forward a local list at this time. However, Trafford’s Core Strategy sets out its intention as the local planning authority to formulate and publish a local list. The lack of an adopted local list has resulted in the demolition of a number of locally significant buildings and has been a determining factor in a number of appeal decisions in giving less weight to the identification of non-designated heritage assets in the planning process. There is also a lack of clarity for owners, developers and officers regarding the identification of heritage assets. Furthermore, it would also result in a missed opportunity to engage members of the community in making a positive contribution to the identification and conservation of local heritage assets.
