Site constraints 8

Tree preservation order

Consent is needed before work on protected trees.

Not every council has published its orders as open data, so no order shown is not proof there is none.

Registered park or garden about 38 m away: Wycombe Abbey

Its setting is a consideration for work nearby.

Registered parks and gardens, battlefields, world heritage sites and protected wrecks are designated heritage assets: harm needs clear and convincing justification.

Historic England ↗

Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2

Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.

Also on the record

Conservation area about 43 m away: Wycombe Abbey; Radon affected area, class 2; Inside the High Wycombe built-up area; Priority habitat about 39 m away: Deciduous woodland; 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 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 14 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.

A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
