Site constraints 9

Green belt: South and West Yorkshire

Inappropriate development needs very special circumstances.

Green belt policy allows a short list of exceptions, such as limited extensions and replacement buildings. Anything else needs very special circumstances that clearly outweigh the harm. Some green belt land can count as grey belt, where it does not strongly serve the green belt's purposes. The council decides this in its green belt assessment or on each application, so we do not mark it here.

Flood zone 3, rivers and sea

High chance: a 1 in 100 or greater annual chance from rivers, or 1 in 200 from the sea. Any development here needs a flood risk assessment. Defences are not counted.

The Environment Agency flood map for planning. Homes in zone 3 must also pass the sequential test. Surface water flooding is a separate map.

Tree preservation order: Belmont Mills, Rochdale Road, Sowerby Bridge

Consent is needed before work on protected trees.

Not every council has published its orders as open data, so no order shown is not proof there is none.

Habitat network: Other Priority Habitats - NEZ

Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.

Also on the record

Nature recovery project: Bradford and South Pennines; Radon affected area, class 3; Inside the Sowerby Bridge built-up area; Priority habitat 14 m away: Deciduous woodland; National infrastructure project 1689 m away: Calderdale Energy Park, at pre-application.
