Site constraints 3

Registered park or garden: The New Town Gardens
Nationally designated heritage. Its significance and setting carry great weight.
Registered parks and gardens, battlefields, world heritage sites and protected wrecks are designated heritage assets: harm needs clear and convincing justification.
Historic Environment Scotland ↗
New Town conservation area
Demolition needs planning permission and permitted development is restricted.
The council must give weight to preserving or enhancing the area's character and appearance. Not every council has published its boundaries as open data.
18 listed buildings within 150 m
Nearest: Catholic Apostolic Church, East London Street, Edinburgh, Grade A, 52 m away · 8 Grade A, 6 Grade B, 4 Grade C
The site itself is not listed. Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.
