About the Old Bursledon Conservation Area
The Old Bursledon Conservation Area covers about 169 hectares and was designated by Eastleigh Borough Council in 1983. Inside the boundary are 22 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 21 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Leonard, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 2, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
