About the Harringworth Conservation Area
The Harringworth Conservation Area covers about 39 hectares and was designated by North Northamptonshire Council in 1977. Inside the boundary are 25 listed buildings (2 Grade I, 23 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St John the Baptist, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
