About the Chalgrove Conservation Area
The Chalgrove Conservation Area covers about 1.6 hectares and was designated by South Oxfordshire District Council in 1992. Inside the boundary are 8 listed buildings, all Grade II. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
