About the Pershore Conservation Area
The Pershore Conservation Area covers about 49 hectares within Wychavon District Council’s area. Inside the boundary are 190 listed buildings (2 Grade I, 8 Grade II*, 180 Grade II). The most significant is Abbey Church of Holy Cross With Saint Edburgha, Grade I. 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.
