Site constraints 9
Whatstandwell conservation area
Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.
The council must give weight to preserving or enhancing the area's character and appearance. Not every council has published its boundaries as open data.
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 1
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Also on the record
Radon affected area, class 3; Local nature reserve 456 m away: Cromford Canal; Coalfield, development low risk area; SSSI 456 m away: Cromford Canal SSSI; Inside the Whatstandwell built-up area; Priority habitat 45 m away: Traditional orchard; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 3, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
