Site constraints 9

Kent Downs National Landscape
Great weight to conserving the landscape; major development restricted.
Previously an area of outstanding natural beauty, which is still the designation in law. Since 2023 authorities must seek to further its purpose, not merely have regard to it.
Tree preservation order: Vigo
Consent is needed before work on protected trees.
Not every council has published its orders as open data, so no order shown is not proof there is none.
Ancient woodland about 10 m away: Brimp/Fowles/Round Wood
Inside the 15 m buffer standing advice asks for from the boundary.
National policy refuses development that would cause loss or deterioration of ancient woodland or ancient trees unless there are wholly exceptional reasons.
National nature reserve about 64 m away: North Kent Woods and Downs
Work nearby can need a habitats assessment.
Harm to a protected site is only accepted where there is no alternative and an overriding public interest.
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
SSSI about 191 m away: Halling to Trottiscliffe Escarpment 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.
Also on the record
Radon affected area, class 2; Inside the Vigo Village built-up area; Green belt about 53 m away: London.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 15 October 2026.

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