Campsall conservation area

Campsall was designated a conservation area on 21 December 1970. A full appraisal has yet to be carried out.

To view the location of the conservation area please go to the Heritage Map.

Campsall is a rural settlement that has expanded with suburban developments from the twentieth century and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. The conservation area is based on the old settlement located along High Street. It is linear in character and stretches along High Street which at either end historically had two large estates - Campsall Hall at the eastern end next to the ancient church of St. Mary Magdalene, and Campsmount Hall to the west, although both Halls have now been demolished.

Limestone was the traditional material, which is rendered on some buildings. Principle roof materials are slate and clay pantiles. Limestone boundary walls are an important and extensive feature of the conservation area. The conservation area has numerous mature trees particularly within the site of the two old estates.

Within the conservation area there are nine listed structures. These can be viewed on the Heritage Map which gives the address, grade and reference number of the listed building. The reference number can be used to find the listing description for any individual listed building using the Historic England database.

The above description of the conservation area is only a brief overview subject to a full appraisal that will consider in more depth the features that make up the significance of the area.
