Harle Syke Conservation Area was first designated in September 1977, the larger of two possible areas considered at that time. The Area was subsequently extended on 4 December 1985.

Harle Syke Conservation Area Appraisal
Burnley Council undertook a detailed survey of the Conservation Area to develop a ‘Conservation Area Appraisal’.
The Appraisal outlines the special architectural and historic interest of the Conservation Area and describes the area’s special character and appearance in detail so that whatever involvement you have, whether as resident, developer or decision-maker, the information is available to help manage proposed changes in a way that will not harm the special qualities of the area. The document will also have an important role in helping to raise the profile of the Borough’s heritage and it is hoped that the appraisal will also be of interest for reference and educational use.
A draft appraisal was made available for public comment, amended as appropriate and the final version published in April 2018.
