About the Filkins And Broughton Poggs Conservation Area
The Filkins And Broughton Poggs Conservation Area covers about 52 hectares and was designated by West Oxfordshire District Council in 1987. Inside the boundary are 42 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 41 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Peter, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
