Site constraints 7

Conservation area 22 m away: Horsley
The edge of the area; work outside it can still affect its setting.
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.
Also on the record
Radon affected area, class 4; National infrastructure project: Chesterfield to Willington, at pre-application; Coalfield, development low risk area; Inside the Horsley (Amber Valley) built-up area; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 4, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
