Site constraints 11

Rufus Castle to Lulworth Cove across the site
Matters where it crosses or adjoins the site; the route and its margin are protected.
Weymouth Town Centre Conservation Area 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.
In flood zones plus climate change
Inside the extent flood zones 2 and 3 could reach with climate change: the Central allowance for the 2080s on rivers, the Upper End allowance for sea level rise to 2125. From the sea. Defences are not counted.
The Environment Agency flood map for planning. Councils use it to decide when a flood risk assessment and the sequential test are needed. It is indicative and does not show whether a particular property will flood.
Flood map ↗
Heritage at risk: Weymouth Town Centre
On the register of historic places assessed as at risk.
A designated building, monument, park or conservation area assessed as at risk from neglect, decay or development. Proposals that secure its future are looked on favourably.
Historic England ↗
30 listed buildings within 150 m
Nearest: Numbers 7-12 Pulteney Buildings (Terrace), Grade II*, 26 m away · 2 Grade II*, 28 Grade II
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.
Show all 30 with distances
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.
SSSI 187 m away: Portland Harbour Shore 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.
Also on the record
Radon affected area, class 2; World heritage site 162 m away: Dorset and East Devon Coast; Flood defence 6 m away (promenade); Inside the Weymouth built-up area.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site
