Historic landscapes and conservation areas are important across the globe. UNESCO knows this, and justly identifies the historic core of Amsterdam as of world importance. Which is why we enjoy going there, taking photos and enjoying the views and the general aesthetic of the place. Even though it's overrun with cars and bicycles.
Clifton Village is not a UNESCO world heritage site, but it is of a similar era, and is also overrun by cars and bicycles.
Which is why Boyce's Avenue has had both banned for much of the day in order to make shopping and walking through there a more pleasant experience.
Oh? They don't quite look the same?
That'll be the UK's obsession with paint. These fantastic new yellow daubings on the kerbs of Boyce's Avenue are there for a reason. Which is really important in historic settings.
