Site constraints 5

East Devon National Landscape

Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 1
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Also on the record
SSSI 261 m away: Budleigh Salterton Cliffs SSSI; World heritage site 201 m away: Dorset and East Devon Coast; Inside the Budleigh Salterton built-up area.
