Site constraints 5

Article 4 direction
Article 4 Direction - Houses in Multiple Occupation Great Yarmouth. Named permitted development rights are withdrawn here.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.
Also on the record
2 listed buildings within 150 m of the postcode pin; Scheduled monument about 178 m away: Caister-on-Sea Roman fort and Saxon settlement; Tree preservation order about 20 m away: G1; Inside the Caister-on-Sea built-up area.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt

Checked on 6 October 2026. The pin for this application is the centre of its postcode rather than the building, so distances to nearby designations are measured from the postcode and can be out by the width of the postcode area. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England and council datasets, Open Government Licence. A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
