Site constraints 4

Stanley Park 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 Article 4 directions
Article 4 Direction - C3 to C4 HMO · Article 4 Direction - Locally Listed buildings · Article 4 Direction - Conservation Area (Stanley Park) - Part 1 · Article 4 Direction - Conservation Area (Stanley Park) - Part 2. Named permitted development rights are withdrawn here.
An Article 4 direction withdraws particular permitted development rights, so work that would normally need no application needs one here. Not every council has published its directions.
Registered park or garden about 40 m away: Stanley Park, Blackpool
Its setting is a consideration for work nearby.
Registered parks and gardens, battlefields, world heritage sites and protected wrecks are designated heritage assets: harm needs clear and convincing justification.

Checked on 11 September 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.
