People in four East Hampshire villages are being given the chance to contribute to a plan that could safeguard key, treasured and historically rich parts of their communities.

Feedback is being sought as conservation areas in Rowlands Castle, Ropley, Upper and Lower Froyle are being reviewed by East Hampshire District Council.

Residents can give their feedback and take part in the appraisal for each area by entering ‘conservation’ into the search bar at https://www.easthants.gov.uk and clicking on the appropriate link.

Each appraisal has been prepared to document and explain why the conservation area is important, as well as provide guidance on how to protect and enhance it.

Residents have until November 27 to take part in the consultation.
