Site constraints 5

Flood zone 3, rivers and sea
High chance: a 1 in 100 or greater annual chance from rivers, or 1 in 200 from the sea. Any development here needs a flood risk assessment. Defences are not counted.
The Environment Agency flood map for planning. Homes in zone 3 must also pass the sequential test. Surface water flooding is a separate map.
Flood map ↗
National infrastructure project 122 m away: Ferrybridge Multifuel 2 (FM2) Power Station
The site is 122 m from the project boundary. Generating station, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted. Also within 2 km: Ferrybridge Carbon Capture and Storage (at pre-application, the site is inside its boundary); Ferrybridge Next Generation Power Station (at pre-application, 185 m); East Coast Hydrogen Humber Pipeline (at pre-application, 1109 m).
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
Radon affected area, class 2; Coalfield, development low risk area; Inside the Holmfield built-up area.
Not affected
Not green belt · No listed building at the site · No scheduled monument at the site

A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
