About the Avenues/Pearson Park Conservation Area
The Avenues/Pearson Park Conservation Area covers about 78 hectares and was designated by Hull City Council in 1974. Inside the boundary are 20 listed buildings, all Grade II. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
