Planning Consultants in Cornwall
Cornwall is entirely managed by a single unitary authority and has a unique planning character. The Cornish Mining Landscape is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site and the extensive National Landscape designation outside the main towns mean all development must demonstrate sensitivity to landscape and heritage character. Tourism pressure, affordable housing, and renewable energy are key planning themes.
