About the Cams Hall Conservation Area
The Cams Hall Conservation Area covers about 97 hectares and was designated by Fareham Borough Council in 1982. Inside the boundary are 10 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 9 Grade II). The most significant is Cams Hall, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
