About the WOODBOROUGH Conservation Area
The WOODBOROUGH Conservation Area covers about 12 hectares and was designated by Wiltshire Council in 1993. Inside the boundary are 17 listed buildings, all 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.
