Site constraints 6

Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2

Also on the record
Special protection area about 324 m away: Ribble & Alt Estuaries; National infrastructure project about 1367 m away: Morgan and Morecambe Offshore Wind Farms Transmission Assets; SSSI about 296 m away: Ribble Estuary SSSI; 1 listed building within 150 m of the postcode pin; Inside the Lytham St Anne's built-up area.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 6 October 2026. The pin for this application is the centre of its postcode rather than the building, so distances to nearby designations are measured from the postcode and can be out by the width of the postcode area. 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.
