Site constraints 11

Petersham conservation area

Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.

The council must give weight to preserving or enhancing the area's character and appearance. Not every council has published its boundaries as open data.

Council document ↗

In flood zones plus climate change

Inside the extent flood zones 2 and 3 could reach with climate change: the Central allowance for the 2080s on rivers, the Upper End allowance for sea level rise to 2125. From rivers. Defences are not counted.

The Environment Agency flood map for planning. Councils use it to decide when a flood risk assessment and the sequential test are needed. It is indicative and does not show whether a particular property will flood.

Flood map ↗

Air quality management area: Richmond AQMA

The council has declared the area as failing an air quality objective.

Schemes that add traffic, parking or combustion plant are assessed against the area's action plan and may need an air quality assessment.

Council record ↗

Public footpath 20 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.

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

Special area of conservation 330 m away: Richmond Park; 2 listed buildings within 150 m; SSSI 330 m away: Richmond Park SSSI; National infrastructure project 781 m away: Teddington Direct River Abstraction (TDRA), at pre-application; Inside the Richmond upon Thames built-up area; Public transport access: PTAL 1b (very poor), TfL 2023, for the 100 m square.

Not affected

Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site
