About the CRUDWELL Conservation Area
The CRUDWELL Conservation Area covers about 22 hectares and was designated by Wiltshire Council in 1975. Inside the boundary are 19 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 1 Grade II*, 17 Grade II). The most significant is Church of All Saints, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
