Site constraints 8

Cliffe conservation area
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.
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Ramsar wetland 254 m away: Thames Estuary & Marshes
Work nearby can need a habitats assessment.
Harm to a protected site is only accepted where there is no alternative and an overriding public interest.
13 listed buildings within 150 m
Nearest: Longford House, Grade II, 47 m away · 1 Grade I, 12 Grade II
The site itself is not listed. Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.

Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site
