About the Andover Conservation Area
The Andover Conservation Area covers about 17 hectares and was designated by Test Valley Borough Council in 1969. Inside the boundary are 67 listed buildings (5 Grade II*, 62 Grade II). The most significant is 89, 91 & 93 High Street, Andover, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
