AONB Management Plans

Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) are protected landscapes in the UK, recognized for their exceptional natural beauty. AONB Management Plans are strategic documents that guide the conservation and enhancement of these special areas. They outline objectives for preserving natural and cultural heritage, supporting local communities, and promoting sustainable development and tourism. Developed by partnerships including local authorities and conservation organizations, these plans involve public consultation and seek to balance environmental protection with the needs of local residents and businesses. Ultimately, they aim to safeguard the landscapes for future generations while allowing for responsible enjoyment.
