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

SSSI 183 m away: Rochdale Canal SSSI

Natural England may need consulting, depending on what is proposed.

Sites of special scientific interest are the best wildlife and geological sites in the country. Development likely to harm one is rarely permitted.
