Anyone else interested will also be able to contribute – by filling in an online questionnaire between next Monday, when it becomes available, and Friday September 9.
After this, the conservation team will produce an action plan for approval by the council’s cabinet.
Rastrick Conservative Councillor Ann McAllister, the district’s heritage champion, said: “This consultation approach will give a major steer in the future development of any conservation areas throughout Calderdale.
“I urge members of the public with an interest of Calderdale’s heritage to get involved and help conserve some of the fantastic heritage that Calderdale has to offer,” she added.
