Site constraints 7

Lake District National Park

The park authority decides applications here. Great weight to conserving the landscape; major development restricted.

Landscape, scenic beauty and wildlife carry great weight, and major development is only allowed in exceptional circumstances.

World heritage site: The English Lake District

Nationally designated heritage. Its significance and setting carry great weight.

Registered parks and gardens, battlefields, world heritage sites and protected wrecks are designated heritage assets: harm needs clear and convincing justification.

Historic England ↗

Public footpath 9 m away

Matters where it crosses or adjoins the site: obstructing a path without a diversion order is an offence, and work cannot start until the order is confirmed.

Compiled from highway authority data, not the legal definitive map. A few authorities have not published, so no path shown is not proof there is none.

Habitat network: Other Priority Habitats - NEZ

Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.

Also on the record

Radon affected area, class 2; Priority habitat 8 m away: Deciduous woodland; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 5, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.

Not affected

Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No listed building at the site

Checked on 8 October 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England, the British Geological Survey and UK Health Security Agency (radon, contains BGS materials © UKRI) and council datasets, Open Government Licence.
