If you don't like the restrictions, don't buy in a conservation area.
It really is that simple. If you do, then you should expect to be
pulled up if you breach those rules.

Remember that some of us didn't buy in Conservation Areas. I bought,
then the CA was foisted on me.

I was lucky to be tipped off so got the big tree in my garden cut down
before C-Day, otherwise my rights to do what I want with a tree I
planted in my garden would be subject to the whims of a council officer.
If I plant a tree now and its trunk grows beyond milk bottle diameter I
lose the option to take it down if I want a shed, patio, or just more
sunshine. So no more trees in my garden.
