Site constraints 5

Also on the record
Scheduled monument about 175 m away: Chitham's Farm moated site; 1 listed building within 150 m of the postcode pin; Green belt about 6 m away: London; Inside the Ramsden Heath built-up area; 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
Outside flood zones 2 and 3

Checked on 22 October 2026. The pin for this application is the centre of its postcode rather than the building, so distances to nearby designations are measured from the postcode and can be out by the width of the postcode area. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England 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.
