Sample report: demonstration location, Chipping Campden

Conservation area: Chipping Campden Conservation Area

This location is in a designated conservation area (Chipping Campden Conservation Area). Demolition, some works to trees, and design of any new building are all controlled more tightly here.

Article 4 direction area: Article 4 Direction Chipping Campden

An Article 4 Direction applies here, removing specific permitted development rights. Exactly which rights are withdrawn varies: check the direction's wording with the council before assuming anything can be done without permission.

National landscape (AONB): Cotswolds

This land is in Cotswolds, a National Landscape (formerly AONB). Conserving scenic beauty carries great weight in planning decisions here: major development faces a strong presumption against, and design standards for anything new are high.

Brownfield register site: 23/02678/Ful, 119 metres away (+1 more)

2 site(s) on the council's brownfield register lie within 0.6 miles (nearest 119m). Registered brownfield signals where the council expects development, useful context for local planning appetite.

No green belt

Not in the Green Belt.

No nutrient neutrality catchment

Not in a nutrient neutrality catchment.

No national park

Not within a National Park.

Flood zone (flood map for planning)

This location falls within an Environment Agency flood zone for rivers and sea. The EA is a statutory consultee on planning applications here: development proposals will normally require a site-specific Flood Risk Assessment and may face objections or conditions.

Historic recorded flooding: July 1968 (Lower Severn)

The Environment Agency holds a record of actual past flooding covering this location. Past flooding is one of the strongest indicators of future risk: ask when it happened and what has changed since.

Nearest main river 3.9 miles away

The nearest Environment Agency main river is about 3.9 miles away. Works within 8m of a main river need an environmental permit, and proximity shapes flood risk and drainage options.

No engineered flood defences

No Environment Agency flood defences within 500m. Nothing here relies on engineered protection, which reads well alongside clear flood zone findings.

No surface water flood risk (high, 1 in 30)

No high (1 in 30) surface water flood risk mapped at this point.

No surface water flood risk (1 in 100 to 1 in 1000)

Not within the mapped 1 in 100 to 1 in 1000 surface water risk band.

No groundwater source protection zone

Not within a groundwater Source Protection Zone.

Nitrate vulnerable zone

This land is in a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone. If farmed, NVZ rules govern fertiliser and manure timing, storage capacity and record keeping.

Agricultural land classification grade: Grade 3

Provisional Agricultural Land Classification: Grade 3. Grades 1-3a are 'best and most versatile' land, which planning policy protects from development but which commands stronger agricultural values and rents.

No tree preservation order zone

No TPO zone recorded at this point. Coverage is per-council and incomplete: absence of a record is not absence of an order, and trees in conservation areas are protected anyway.

Broadband: gigabit full fibre available to 29% of premises

The fastest speeds a provider is predicted to deliver at the 48 addresses Ofcom records in this postcode, by type of line: standard broadband is the basic copper line, superfast (30Mbps+) is typically fibre-to-the-cabinet or cable, and ultrafast (100Mbps+) means full fibre or fast cable. Speeds are modelled per address and vary between premises and providers.

Ofcom postcode-level data: a postcode typically covers a single street or hamlet, so these figures describe the premises immediately around this location.

Mobile coverage: all four networks likely outdoors

Per-network signal predictions for the 48 addresses Ofcom records in this postcode: 'likely' means a good chance of reliable signal, 'limited' means it may be patchy. Predictions are modelled rather than measured, and indoor signal depends on building materials; for bare land, treat the outdoor figures as the guide.
