About the Chislehurst Conservation Area
The Chislehurst Conservation Area covers about 592 hectares and was designated by London Borough of Bromley in 1971. Inside the boundary are 57 listed buildings (4 Grade II*, 53 Grade II). The most significant is Camden Place, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
