About the SAINT NEOTS INCL EYNESBURY AND EATON SOCON AND EATON FORD Conservation Area
The SAINT NEOTS INCL EYNESBURY AND EATON SOCON AND EATON FORD Conservation Area covers about 441 hectares and was designated by Huntingdonshire District Council in 2006. Inside the boundary are 149 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 6 Grade II*, 142 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Mary, Grade I. 1 Article 4 direction over the area removes further householder rights, on top of the conservation area limits below. 288 Tree Preservation Order records overlap the area; every other tree here still needs six weeks’ notice before work. Part of the area lies in flood zone 2, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
What changes inside the conservation area
Conservation areas are “Article 2(3) land”. You keep most permitted development rights, but these are removed or tightened.

These overlap the conservation area. Householder directions remove more of the rights above; change-of-use ones don’t affect extending a house.
