About the ENFORD Conservation Area
The ENFORD Conservation Area covers about 50 hectares and was designated by Wiltshire Council in 1974. Inside the boundary are 25 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 24 Grade II). The most significant is Church of All Saints and St Margaret, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
