Site constraints 8

Camberwell New Road 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.
Council document ↗
Tree preservation order: Rear garden 25a Flodden Road SE5 9LH
Consent is needed before work on protected trees. A single protected tree within 15 m, nearest 4 m.
Not every council has published its orders as open data, so no order shown is not proof there is none.
Air quality management area: Southwark AQMA
The council has declared the area as failing an air quality objective.
Schemes that add traffic, parking or combustion plant are assessed against the area's action plan and may need an air quality assessment.
Council record ↗
Registered park or garden 71 m away: Myatt's Fields
Its setting is a consideration for work nearby.
Registered parks and gardens, battlefields, world heritage sites and protected wrecks are designated heritage assets: harm needs clear and convincing justification.
