Abstract
Abstract Countryside strategies, particularly for nature conservation, are part of a growth in non‐statutory strategic planning. They are largely integrative, and set the context for, and are able to cover subjects normally beyond the scope of, statutory development plans. Specifically for nature conservation, this paper summarizes the limitations of policies in structure plans and reviews four countryside strategies to assess the extent to which they overcome these limitations. Whilst providing a renewed focus for nature conservation, such strategies lack information and guidance in assisting plan formulation, are not accountable, have problems in their adoptability and lack the resources for implementation.
