Site constraints 8

Public footpath 19 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 Expansion Zone
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
11 listed buildings within 150 m
Nearest: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, the Courtyard, Grade II, 55 m away · 11 Grade II
The site itself is not listed. Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.

Also on the record
Radon affected area, class 4; Coalfield, development low risk area; Inside the Woolley built-up area; Green belt 22 m away: South and West Yorkshire; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 3, 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
