Site constraints 6

Special protection area: Firth of Forth
2 designations overlap here. A habitats assessment is needed.
Harm to a protected site is only accepted where there is no alternative and an overriding public interest.
SSSI: Firth of Forth
Natural England must be consulted on work that may affect it.
Sites of special scientific interest are the best wildlife and geological sites in the country. Development likely to harm one is rarely permitted.
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 ↗
Registered battlefield 7 m away: Battle of Inverkeithing Ii
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.
Historic Environment Scotland ↗
Also on the record
Conservation area 40 m away: North Queensferry; 1 listed building within 150 m.
Not affected
No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 25 September 2026. 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.
