Flood zones, the coast and protected nature
Flood zones
Part of Hillside Road is in Flood Zone 3 (rivers). That is the Environment Agency’s flood map for planning, which shows land that could flood from rivers or the sea, ignoring the benefits of any existing flood defences.
Locations in flood zone 3 have a high probability of flooding.
This means, in any year, land has:
- a 1% (1 in 100) or more chance of flooding from rivers
- a 0.5% (1 in 200) or more chance of flooding from the sea.
Flood zone 3 developments need a flood risk assessment as part of their planning application.
Protected nature
- St Helen's Wood LNR ↗ (Local Nature Reserve): Hillside Road’s line runs through it.
- High Weald National Landscape ↗ (National Landscape (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty)): Hillside Road’s line passes within about 10 m of it.
- Ancient woodland: Hillside Road’s line passes within about 100 m of 1 parcel on Natural England’s inventory.
