Zoning

C1.1 — Retail warehousing

Zoned for bulky-goods retail warehousing — large sheds, large car parks.

G5 — Open space and amenity

Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.

R2 — Existing residential

An established residential area. The objective is to protect existing residential amenity as well as to provide housing — which is the objective a neighbour's objection to an overbearing extension is usually argued under.

C3 — High technology

Zoned for office, research and development and high-technology manufacturing.

G4 — Open space

Open space and recreational amenity, to be preserved as such.
