Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.
The council must give weight to preserving or enhancing the area's character and appearance. Not every council has published its boundaries as open data.
Council document ↗
Public footpath 15 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.
Also on the record
Special protection area 354 m away: Deben Estuary; National infrastructure project 1317 m away: East Anglia THREE Offshore Wind Farm; National landscape 284 m away: Suffolk Coast & Heaths; SSSI 354 m away: Deben Estuary SSSI; Inside the Woodbridge built-up area.
