About the Salhouse Conservation Area
The Salhouse Conservation Area covers about 103 hectares and was designated by Broadland District Council in 2003. Inside the boundary are 16 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 15 Grade II). The most significant is Church of All Saints, Grade I. 18 Tree Preservation Order records overlap the area; every other tree here still needs six weeks’ notice before work. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
