Site constraints 6

Cornwall National Landscape
Great weight to conserving the landscape; major development restricted.
Previously an area of outstanding natural beauty, which is still the designation in law. Since 2023 authorities must seek to further its purpose, not merely have regard to it.
Also on the record
2 listed buildings within 150 m; Scheduled monument 176 m away: Churchyard cross in St Michael's churchyard, Porthilly; Radon affected area, class 4; Inside the Rock (Cornwall) built-up area; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 3, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt
