Conservation Area: Halton Conservation Area (019)

The existing Conservation Area Boundary approximately follows the extent of the historic village and includes all but one of listed buildings within the immediate area. The boundary excludes areas of predominately 20th century housing. Most of the area within the boundary falls along Main Street, around Millennium Green, Castle Hill and Halton Common. The boundary is irregular and excludes a central area of modern housing along Mount Road and St. Mary’s Road that sits between Halton Common and the castle. This includes many important historic buildings, most notably the grade I listed Halton Castle, which is also designated as a Scheduled Monument. The Castle Hotel Public House, the Chesshyre (Parish) Library, the Vicarage, the Old Hall and the Seneschal’s House are all listed grade II*, to reflect their high importance. Within the village there are fifteenth further entries on the statutory list designated as grade II.
