About the Arncliffe Conservation Area
The Arncliffe Conservation Area covers about 9.8 hectares and was designated by Yorkshire Dales National Park in 1978. Inside the boundary are 28 listed buildings, all Grade II. Part of the area lies in flood zone 3, so an extension may need a flood risk assessment.
