Conservation Areas

Heydon was designated as a Conservation Area in February 1979.  Conservation Areas are defined as areas of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance.

​

Planning
As you may be aware South Cambridgeshire District Council has received a 'pre-application proposal' from the owner of Heydon Estate, to give an initial view on the possibility of a major development around the village, that could include about 9000 new dwellings. At the moment there is no planning application.
South Cambridgeshire District Council Planning officers have stated that the suggestion of new homes in this location will not be supported at this time as they are not included in the  new Local Development Plan which guides development in the district until 2031.
Work is due to start in 2019 on the next Plan, between South Cambridgeshire District Council and Cambridge City Council, and if this land, or any other substantial area of land, is submitted for consideration then a meeting of the village will be called to discuss the way forward.
The Parish  Council will keep you advised of any developments in the meantime.
