Plota predicted a decision around 9 Oct 2026; it is now day 91.

Day 91, past the statutory target. 95% of lawful development certificates in Braintree are decided within thirteen weeks, which runs to 9 Oct 2026; extensions of time are common, and the council need not decide on the day. Last seen undecided on 24 Aug 2026.

Site constraints 4

National infrastructure project 358 m away: A12 Chelmsford to A120 Widening Scheme
The site is 358 m from the project boundary. Highway, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted.
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.
Planning Inspectorate project page ↗
Also on the record
1 listed building within 150 m; Inside the Hatfield Peverel built-up area; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 2, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 6 October 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England, the Planning Inspectorate and council datasets, Open Government Licence. A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
