Site constraints 4

Article 4 direction
Whole District excluding the Town of Chesham - Poultry production.. Named permitted development rights are withdrawn here.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.
Public footpath 27 m away
Matters where it crosses or adjoins the site: obstructing a path without a diversion order is an offence, and work cannot start until the order is confirmed.

Also on the record
Radon affected area, class 2; Inside the Amersham built-up area.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No listed building at the site
