Site constraints 10

Flood zone 3, rivers and sea
High chance: a 1 in 100 or greater annual chance from rivers, or 1 in 200 from the sea. Any development here needs a flood risk assessment. Defences are not counted.
The Environment Agency flood map for planning. Homes in zone 3 must also pass the sequential test. Surface water flooding is a separate map.
Flood map ↗
Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation 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.
Special protection area 30 m away: Blackwater Estuary (Mid-Essex Coast Phase 4)
Work nearby can need a habitats assessment.
Harm to a protected site is only accepted where there is no alternative and an overriding public interest.
SSSI 31 m away: Blackwater Estuary SSSI
Natural England may need consulting, depending on what is proposed.
Sites of special scientific interest are the best wildlife and geological sites in the country. Development likely to harm one is rarely permitted.
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Maldon to Salcott 23 m away
Matters where it crosses or adjoins the site; the route and its margin are protected.
Also on the record
Public footpath 30 m away; Flood defence 28 m away (embankment, designed for a 1 in 191 year flood); Inside the Maldon built-up area; Priority habitat 27 m away: No main habitat but additional habitats present.
Not affected
Not green belt · No listed building at the site · No scheduled monument at the site
