About the GRAMPOUND Conservation Area
The GRAMPOUND Conservation Area covers about 11 hectares and was designated by Cornwall Council in 1974. Inside the boundary are 51 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 50 Grade II). The most significant is Manor Houses, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
