About the Whiteladies Road Conservation Area

The Whiteladies Road Conservation Area covers about 102 hectares and was designated by Bristol City Council in 1976. Inside the boundary are 101 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 100 Grade II). The most significant is The Clifton Pool and the Victoria Public House, Grade II*. 3 Article 4 directions over the area remove further householder rights, on top of the conservation area limits below. 271 Tree Preservation Order records overlap the area; every other tree here still needs six weeks’ notice before work.

What changes inside the conservation area

Conservation areas are “Article 2(3) land”. You keep most permitted development rights, but these are removed or tightened.

Limits for a semi-detached house under the GPDO 2015. An Article 4 direction can remove more.

Article 4 directions here

These overlap the conservation area. Householder directions remove more of the rights above; change-of-use ones don’t affect extending a house.
