About the Barnes Green Conservation Area
The Barnes Green Conservation Area covers about 34 hectares and was designated by London Borough of Richmond upon Thames in 1969. Inside the boundary are 23 listed buildings (2 Grade II*, 21 Grade II). The most significant is 18, Station Road Sw13, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
