About the WADEBRIDGE Conservation Area

The WADEBRIDGE Conservation Area covers about 74 hectares and was designated by Cornwall Council in 1992. Inside the boundary are 40 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 1 Grade II*, 38 Grade II). The most significant is Egloshayle Church, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 2, 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.

Limits for a semi-detached house under the GPDO 2015. An Article 4 direction can remove more.

Listed buildings in the conservation area

Any work affecting these needs listed building consent, inside or out. Each links to its entry on the National Heritage List.
