Since November 2025: 1 street problem. Each dot is one of them, in the month it happened. Our planning records start in April 2026 and our council papers in September 2025, and street problems show only while they are open, so earlier months may look quieter than they really were.

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

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 Cornwallis Gardens 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 Cornwallis Gardens’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 Cornwallis Gardens’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 Cornwallis Gardens’s line, and it is outside the High Weald National Landscape. Protected nature in Hastings

What the council lists here

Problems reported, roadworks, how long reports take to close, and who looks after the road.

Street problems reported here

Open reports from residents, made through FixMyStreet. “Near” means the nearest listed street to the point the reporter marked, not an address they gave. Reports that describe people, such as a tent or someone sleeping rough, are left out (the rule).

All street problems

Who looks after this street

Adopted highway: yes. Cornwallis Gardens is on East Sussex County Council’s map of adopted roads, so the county looks after it: report a problem to East Sussex Highways.

From East Sussex County Council’s map of adopted roads, read 12 October 2026. © East Sussex County Council 2026. Only the street’s name and whether it is adopted are used: the county’s map is the record, and its Highway Land Information Team confirms a road’s status. Who looks after what

Roadworks here

Who has dug up this street or plans to, and why, from their permits.

Roadworks across town

In the last 13 months

From the permits utilities and East Sussex County Council apply for in DfT Street Manager, read from its open archive (September 2025 to September 2026; newest entry 30 September 2026). The archive is published monthly, so works booked since then, and emergencies, aren't here yet, and planned dates can change.

How long street reports here took to close

Of the 1 problem reported near Cornwallis Gardens that our record holds, 0 are closed on FixMyStreet and 1 is still open.

“Closed” is FixMyStreet’s status, set by the council or the person who reported it. It is not proof that anything was fixed. Our record of reports starts on 3 August 2026. Older open reports have been checked again for closure since 11 October 2026; before then a report that closed later could still show as open here.

Air quality nearby

The council's nitrogen dioxide tube at Carlise Parade, about 330 m from the middle of this street: an annual mean of 16.5 µg/m³ in 2025.

Every year the report gives: 2021: 19.3, 2022: 19.1, 2023: 16.9, 2024: 16.0, 2025: 16.5 (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
