Site constraints 9

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 ↗
Air quality management area: Gravesham A226 One-way system AQMA
The council has declared the area as failing an air quality objective.
Schemes that add traffic, parking or combustion plant are assessed against the area's action plan and may need an air quality assessment.
Council record ↗
National infrastructure project about 773 m away: Lower Thames Crossing
The site is about 773 m from the project boundary. Highway, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted. Also within 2 km: Tilbury2 (decided, about 1070 m); Thurrock Flexible Generation Plant (decided, about 1835 m).
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.
Planning Inspectorate project page ↗
Also on the record
6 listed buildings within 150 m of the postcode pin; Radon affected area, class 2; Conservation area about 68 m away: High Street & Queen Street, Gravesend Conservation Area; Inside the Gravesend built-up area; Flood defence about 41 m from the postcode pin (wall, designed for a 1 in 1000 year flood); Priority habitat about 44 m away: No main habitat but additional habitats present.
Not affected
Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 6 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, the Planning Inspectorate, the British Geological Survey and UK Health Security Agency (radon, contains BGS materials © UKRI) 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.
