Grade II listed: Horse and Groom Public House
List entry 1311129 · 27 m away
Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.
Historic England ↗
Public footpath 23 m away
Matters where it crosses or adjoins the site: obstructing a path without a diversion order is an offence, and work cannot start until the order is confirmed.
Compiled from highway authority data, not the legal definitive map. A few authorities have not published, so no path shown is not proof there is none.
Also on the record
Radon affected area, class 2; National infrastructure project 106 m away: East West Rail - Bedford to Cambridge and Western improvements, at pre-application; Inside the Clapham (Bedford) built-up area.
Not affected
