About the Bridgnorth Conservation Area

The Bridgnorth Conservation Area covers about 65 hectares and was designated by Shropshire Council in 1971. Inside the boundary are 236 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 11 Grade II*, 224 Grade II). The most significant is Bishop Percy's House, 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.

Limits for a semi-detached house under the GPDO 2015. An Article 4 direction can remove more.
