Exeter City Council has designated a number of areas of Exeter as 'Conservation Areas', which are areas of Exeter which are considered to be of special architectural or historic interest.

Exwick was designated as a Conservation Area in 1984 and the Appraisal and Management Plan was adopted in 2006. Here is a link to Exeter City Council's Final Appraisal document, which can be downloaded from their website in Adobe pdf format. It has a lot of information about the area, maps and some good pictures of Exwick.

The Conservation Area covers the area of what used to be the village or hamlet of Exwick, which includes the area around the church, St Andrews Road, Exwick Hill and the mill. There are a number of listed buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest included in the Conservation area, plus many more which are considered to be Buildings of Local Importance. There is more information and pictures of some of the listed buildings on the Listed Buildings page.
