Site constraints 4

Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.

Checked on 6 October 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England, the Planning Inspectorate 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.
