About the STOCKTON Conservation Area
The STOCKTON Conservation Area covers about 55 hectares and was designated by Wiltshire Council in 1973. Inside the boundary are 34 listed buildings (1 Grade I, 1 Grade II*, 32 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St John the Baptist, Grade I. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
