About the Bishops Waltham Conservation Area
The Bishops Waltham Conservation Area covers about 37 hectares and was designated by Winchester City Council in 1973. Inside the boundary are 98 listed buildings (3 Grade II*, 95 Grade II). The most significant is Bank and Offices, 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.
