About the Bingley Conservation Area
The Bingley Conservation Area covers about 19 hectares within City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council’s area. Inside the boundary are 18 listed buildings (2 Grade II*, 16 Grade II). The most significant is Church of All Saints, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
