Site constraints 6

Radon-affected area
Grade II listed: No 21 and Attached Barn to Rear
List entry 1146594 · 20 m away · 3 more listed buildings within 150 m (3 Grade II)

Historic England ↗
National infrastructure project: Gate Burton Energy Park
The site is inside the project boundary. Generating station, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted. Also within 2 km: West Burton Solar Project (decided, the site is inside its boundary); Cottam Solar Project (decided, the site is inside its boundary); Tillbridge Solar Project (decided, 372 m); Steeple Renewables Project (awaiting the Secretary of State's decision, 1581 m).
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.

Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 1
