About the Bedford Park Conservation Area
The Bedford Park Conservation Area covers about 20 hectares and was designated by London Borough of Ealing in 1969. Inside the boundary are 132 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 131 Grade II). The most significant is 14, South Parade W4, Grade II*. 1 Article 4 direction over the area removes further householder rights, on top of the conservation area limits below. 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.

Article 4 directions here
These overlap the conservation area. Householder directions remove more of the rights above; change-of-use ones don’t affect extending a house.
