Site constraints 5

Harlow Mill and Old Road North conservation area
Also Harlow Mill and Old Road North. Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.

Council document ↗
Article 4 direction
HMO - townwide. Named permitted development rights are withdrawn here.
An Article 4 direction withdraws particular permitted development rights, so work that would normally need no application needs one here. Not every council has published its directions.

Checked on 6 October 2026. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England and council datasets, Open Government Licence. A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
