About the CALLINGTON Conservation Area
The CALLINGTON Conservation Area covers about 6.7 hectares and was designated by Cornwall Council in 1994. Inside the boundary are 22 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 21 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Mary, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
