About the Stokesley Conservation Area
The Stokesley Conservation Area covers about 23 hectares and was designated by North Yorkshire Council in 1988. Inside the boundary are 94 listed buildings (4 Grade II*, 90 Grade II). The most significant is Barclays Bank, Grade II*. 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.
