About the Walkington Conservation Area
The Walkington Conservation Area covers about 27 hectares and was designated by East Riding of Yorkshire Council in 1974. Inside the boundary are 7 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 6 Grade II). The most significant is Church of All Hallows, Grade II*. 39 Tree Preservation Order records overlap the area; every other tree here still needs six weeks’ notice before work.
