Zoning
Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.
Land tied to a national or strategic asset (airport, port, rail corridor). Uses are controlled by that asset's own plan.
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.
A small rural settlement where only modest infill serving local need is envisaged.
Protections nearby 250 m
