About the DEVORAN Conservation Area
The DEVORAN Conservation Area covers about 27 hectares and was designated by Cornwall Council in 1978. Inside the boundary are 23 listed buildings, all Grade II. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
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.
