About the WEST KINGTON Conservation Area
The WEST KINGTON Conservation Area covers about 38 hectares and was designated by Wiltshire Council in 1975. Inside the boundary are 39 listed buildings (2 Grade II*, 37 Grade II). The most significant is Church of St Mary, Grade II*. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
What changes inside the conservation area
Conservation areas are “Article 2(3) land”. You keep most permitted development rights, but these are removed or tightened.
