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.

Planning appeals on this street

The planning committee's appeal reports list each appeal against a planning decision; the Planning Inspectorate decides them, and its own data lists those it has decided, each linking to its decision letter. Each is shown with its latest outcome.

Conservation, listed buildings and protected trees

None of the town’s 18 conservation areas reaches Clifton Road 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 ↗

Tree preservation orders

The council’s map data has no tree preservation order within about 40 m of Clifton Road’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 Clifton Road’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 Clifton Road’s line, and it is outside the High Weald National Landscape. Protected nature in Hastings
