Expected by 10 Nov 2026

This application is under consideration - no decision has been issued yet. Plota predicts a decision around 27 Oct 2026, from Rotherham's recent tree and landscaping works.

Site constraints 5

Public footpath 18 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
Nature improvement area: Dearne Valley Green Heart; Inside the Swinton (Rotherham) built-up area; Green belt 22 m away: South and West Yorkshire; Priority habitat 23 m away: Deciduous woodland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · No listed building at the site · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 25 September 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England 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.
