Site constraints 4

Tree preservation order: Areas around Great Parks, Paignton

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.

Also on the record

Radon affected area, class 4; Inside the Paignton built-up area; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 2, 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 · No listed building at the site
