Planning and building here

Closing dates you can still act on, applications and decisions on the street, appeals, the protections that cover it, and the council's land and licensing papers.

Planning on this street

We have no planning applications or decisions for this street. That doesn’t mean nothing has happened here, only that the council’s weekly planning lists haven’t named it since our record starts on 21 April 2026.

Conservation, listed buildings and protected trees

None of the town’s 18 conservation areas reaches Blue Quarry as mapped.

Measured along the street’s line against the council’s boundaries. Whether a particular building is inside depends on where the boundary runs: each area’s page on the council’s site has its map. All 18 conservation areas

The council’s Article 4 direction on houses in multiple occupation covers the whole town (in force since 2 July 2012): turning a house into a shared house for three to six people needs planning permission. The council’s page ↗

Listed buildings

Historic England’s list has no entry that names Blue Quarry or stands beside its line. Every listed building in Hastings

Tree preservation orders

The council’s map data has no tree preservation order within about 40 m of Blue Quarry’s line.

Indicative only — the council’s order is what counts. The council says of its tree order map data: “This dataset is under review and subject to change. Always refer to the Original Tree Preservation Order and associated plan for confirmation.” The council’s tree preservation orders page ↗

Flood zones, the coast and protected nature

Flood zones

None of Blue Quarry’s line is in Flood Zone 2 or 3 on the Environment Agency’s flood map for planning. In the Agency’s words: “This means a site in flood zone 1 could still flood now or in the future.”

A street’s line is not an address. For a particular address, use the Environment Agency’s Check your long term flood risk ↗; for a planning site, its Flood map for planning ↗. Flood warnings in force now are on Live now.

Protected nature

No Site of Special Scientific Interest, Special Area of Conservation, Local Nature Reserve, ancient woodland or country park is within about 100 m of Blue Quarry’s line, and it is outside the High Weald National Landscape. Protected nature in Hastings

Who looks after this street

Not on the county’s list of adopted roads. Blue Quarry isn’t named on East Sussex County Council’s map of adopted roads. It may be private or unadopted, it may be named differently there, or it may be a footpath, steps or a twitten rather than a road.

The county’s Highway Land Information Team answers questions about road adoption (highwaysearches@eastsussex.gov.uk, 01273 482 316). For a footpath or steps, the county’s rights of way map and Rights of Way Team (rightsofway@eastsussex.gov.uk).

Air quality nearby

The council's nitrogen dioxide continuous monitor at Hastings-Bulverhythe, about 250 m from the middle of this street: an annual mean of 10.0 µg/m³ in 2025. It also measures fine particles (PM2.5): 12.2 µg/m³ in 2025.

Every year the report gives: 2021: 11.0, 2022: 12.8, 2023: 9.4, 2024: 8.8, 2025: 10.0 (µg/m³).

Each figure is for the kerbside spot where the tube or monitor sits, not for the whole street. The report compares each site “with the air quality objective of 40µg/m3”, an annual mean. From the borough council's 2026 Air Quality Annual Status Report (May 2026, read 12 October 2026). Every site
