About the SUTTON BENGER Conservation Area
The SUTTON BENGER Conservation Area covers about 22 hectares within Wiltshire Council’s area. Inside the boundary are 27 listed buildings (1 Grade II*, 26 Grade II). The most significant is Church of All Saints, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
