About the Chertsey Conservation Area
The Chertsey Conservation Area covers about 23 hectares within Runnymede Borough Council’s area. Inside the boundary are 74 listed buildings (3 Grade II*, 71 Grade II). The most significant is 25, Windsor Street, 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.
