Site constraints 7

Sturminster Marshall Conservation Area 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.
Also on the record
Local nature reserve 345 m away: Walnut Tree Field; 1 listed building within 150 m; Inside the Sturminster Marshall built-up area; Priority habitat 33 m away: Traditional orchard; Green belt 91 m away: South West Hampshire; the 1970s provisional farmland map 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 scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 11 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.
