The Conservation areas need to be reviewed and enlarged.

Perhaps far more parkland should be included such as St Mary Lands in Warwick which date back over 750 years and are under threat from a leaseholder- Racecourse Investments Ltd -wishing to build a large budget hotel which will impact on the landscape and is largely irrelevant to the running of a successful racecourse. Views that have existed for hundreds and in one case over 1 thousand years would be lost, for short term commercial gain.

This is an example of piecemeal damage to our historic environment.
