Site constraints 11

Public byway open to all traffic 24 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.
Compiled from highway authority data, not the legal definitive map. A few authorities have not published, so no path shown is not proof there is none.
Registered park or garden 28 m away: Kearsney Court
Its setting is a consideration for work nearby.
Registered parks and gardens, battlefields, world heritage sites and protected wrecks are designated heritage assets: harm needs clear and convincing justification.
Historic England ↗
Habitat network: Network Enhancement Zone 2
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Radon affected area, class 6
An estimated 30% or more of homes reach the radon action level. Indicative for the 1 km square, which takes the highest class found in it; a radon test gives the answer for a building.
From the British Geological Survey and UK Health Security Agency indicative atlas. Under building regulations, as the BRE guide BR 211 (2023) sets out, new buildings and extensions need basic radon protection from class 3 in England and Wales and from class 2 in Scotland, and full protection from class 5. The class at the site itself, from the detailed BGS map, decides which.
UKHSA radon ↗
Also on the record
2 listed buildings within 150 m; National landscape 212 m away: Kent Downs; Coalfield, development low risk area; SSSI 445 m away: Alkham, Lydden and Swingfield Woods SSSI; Tree preservation order 18 m away: All trees situated on the western and southern ban; Flood defence 27 m away (natural high ground, designed for a 1 in 5 year flood); Inside the Dover built-up area.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site
