About the Middleton-in-Teesdale Conservation Area
The Middleton-in-Teesdale Conservation Area covers about 39 hectares and was designated by Durham County Council in 1973. Inside the boundary are 47 listed buildings, all Grade II. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
