About the Sidbury Conservation Area
The Sidbury Conservation Area covers about 11 hectares and was designated by East Devon District Council in 1970. Inside the boundary are 48 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 47 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Giles and St Peter, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
