About the Heworth Green/East Parade Conservation Area
The Heworth Green/East Parade Conservation Area covers about 24 hectares and was designated by City of York Council in 1975. Inside the boundary are 20 listed buildings, all Grade II. Part of the area lies in flood zone 2, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
