Site constraints 6

Hardwick 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.
Council document ↗
4 listed buildings within 150 m
Nearest: Parish Church of St Mary, Grade II*, 31 m away · 1 Grade II*, 3 Grade II
The site itself is not listed. 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 ↗
Also on the record
National infrastructure project 482 m away: East West Rail - Bedford to Cambridge and Western improvements, at pre-application; Inside the Hardwick (South Cambridgeshire) built-up area; Green belt 62 m away: Cambridge; 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.
