York Historic Environment Record

The Strensall Railway Buildings conservation area was designated on 6th November 2001. A Conservation Area Appraisal was carried out in 2011 - no alterations to the boundary were suggested. The east end of Strensal was developed from the mid-1840s as a result of the building of the railway with its former station, and marks the first expansion of the village outside its historic core. The old station is a listed building, which forms a group with the signal box. It is the last remaining building of its kind on the York-Scarborough line. The area is characterised by the late 19th century terraces of small brick-built houses.
