About the Bradpole Conservation Area
The Bradpole Conservation Area covers about 9.2 hectares and was designated by Dorset Council in 1993. Inside the boundary are 9 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.
