About the Bampton Grange Conservation Area
The Bampton Grange Conservation Area covers about 2.9 hectares and was designated by Lake District National Park in 2000. Inside the boundary are 9 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 8 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Patrick, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
