Site constraints 4

Tree preservation order: North Colchester,

Consent is needed before work on protected trees.

Not every council has published its orders as open data, so no order shown is not proof there is none.

Also on the record

National infrastructure project 1928 m away: Norwich to Tilbury; Inside the Colchester built-up area; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 2, 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 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.
