Heritage Lighting and its impact on the conservation area

Our scheme began with the reintroduction of heritage lighting on Paradise. It soon became evident that there was a reduction of speeding, littering and fly-tipping and an increase in neighbourhood pride.

Heritage lighting is the most visible clue that you are in a historic area. We soon realised that adopting lanterns throughout the scheme would be an important step in changing the perceived value of our cultural heritage for residents and visitors alike.
