Site constraints 6

Article 4 direction

Immediate Article 4 Direction for small Houses in Multiple Occupation. Named permitted development rights are withdrawn here.

An Article 4 direction withdraws particular permitted development rights, so work that would normally need no application needs one here. Not every council has published its directions.

Also on the record

Radon affected area, class 4; Coalfield, development low risk area; Inside the Bacup built-up area; Priority habitat 13 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 listed building at the site
