About the Wellingborough Conservation Area
The Wellingborough Conservation Area covers about 58 hectares within North Northamptonshire Council’s area. Inside the boundary are 93 listed buildings (2 Grade I, 4 Grade II*, 87 Grade II). The most significant is Church of All Hallows, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, 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.
