Also on the record
National infrastructure project 933 m away: East Coast Hydrogen Teesside Pipeline, at pre-application; Inside the School Aycliffe built-up area.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No listed building at the site

Checked on 6 October 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England, the Planning Inspectorate 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.
