Site constraints 7

Protected tree 2 m away: Lime (Tilia Spp), order 230

3 protected trees within 15 m. Named in a tree preservation order: work to it, its roots included, needs the council's consent first.

Root protection areas reach up to 15 m from a large tree, so an extension or new foundations this close usually needs a tree survey. Only some councils publish their single trees, and a position can be approximate: the order at the council is the definitive record, and no tree shown is not proof there is none.

Air quality management area: Lambeth 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.
