About the Steeton Conservation Area
The Steeton Conservation Area covers about 27 hectares within City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council’s area. Inside the boundary are 13 listed buildings, all Grade II. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
