About the Milton Regis - High Street Conservation Area
The Milton Regis - High Street Conservation Area covers about 4.1 hectares and was designated by Swale Borough Council in 1970. Inside the boundary are 37 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 36 Grade II). The most significant is The Court House, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
