Urban Conservation

Conservation in the Urban Areas

In Angus, we understand the importance of the urban environment to the quality of life of its residents, as well as its economic importance. While Angus enjoys a wonderful countryside, it also enjoys well conserved towns and urban environs that make Angus a great place to live.

Angus Council ensures that historic buildings and areas are managed to the highest standards by providing a high quality Conservation Service.

The Council actively engages in urban conservation through listed buildings, representing the very best of our built heritage and Conservation Areas, nineteen of which are identified as follows:

• Arbirlot
