Site constraints 5

Nutrient neutrality catchment: Brue Catchment
New homes and overnight accommodation must show nutrient neutrality before approval.
Natural England advice: extra wastewater in these catchments harms protected habitats, so schemes must offset their nutrient load, usually through credits.
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Also on the record
National landscape 176 m away: Mendip Hills; Registered park or garden 176 m away: Milton Lodge and The Combe; Inside the Wells built-up area.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No listed building at the site
