Description

The conservation area was designated in 1988 and includes the historic core of the village, the Main Street together with Stockton Hall and its grounds and a frontage of early 20th century housing opposite the hall. Stockton Hall is the village's most imposing individual house, now used as a hospital. It dates from c.1800 and is listed Grade II. The main elements of the character and appearance of the area are: 1) The way that the traditional village form has survived in its rural setting 2) The overall character of The Village street, with its informal mixture of houses and cottages 3) The valuable legacy of farm buildings, outbuildings and paddocks that create a soft and natural looking rural edge to the village 4) The formality and stature of Stockton Hall, its grounds, Walled Garden and defining woodland
