Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Also on the record
Special protection area 355 m away: Thames Basin Heaths; SSSI 355 m away: Horsell Common SSSI; Inside the Woking built-up area; Green belt 59 m away: London; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 4, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · No listed building at the site · No scheduled monument at the site
