Site constraints 11

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 ↗
Public footpath 8 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.
Combe Martin to Marsland Mouth 2 m away
Matters where it crosses or adjoins the site; the route and its margin are protected.
SSSI 18 m away: Taw-Torridge Estuary SSSI
Natural England may need consulting, depending on what is proposed.
Sites of special scientific interest are the best wildlife and geological sites in the country. Development likely to harm one is rarely permitted.
Habitat network: Coastal saltmarsh
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Also on the record
Radon affected area, class 4; Flood defence 7 m away (demountable defence); Coalfield, development low risk area; 1 listed building within 150 m; Inside the Bideford built-up area; Priority habitat 18 m away: Coastal saltmarsh.
Not affected
Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site
