About the Burton upon Stather Conservation Area
The Burton upon Stather Conservation Area covers about 7.3 hectares and was designated by North Lincolnshire Council in 1970. Inside the boundary are 9 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 8 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Andrew, Grade I. 1 Article 4 direction over the area removes further householder rights, on top of the conservation area limits below. 9 Tree Preservation Order records overlap the area; every other tree here still needs six weeks’ notice before work.
