About the HEYTESBURY Conservation Area
The HEYTESBURY Conservation Area covers about 17 hectares and was designated by Wiltshire Council in 1986. Inside the boundary are 37 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 36 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Peter and St Paul, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
