The light is the one thing on the record here in the last year. Tap it for its details. What’s near Keymer Close on the full map. The shaded area inside the dashed line is a conservation area and green dots are trees under a tree preservation order (indicative only).
Keymer Close at a glance
The street beside its ward and the town. Each figure is from the section further down that says where it comes from.
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
None of the town’s 18 conservation areas reaches Keymer Close 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 ↗
The council’s map data has no tree preservation order within about 40 m of Keymer Close’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 ↗

No Site of Special Scientific Interest, Special Area of Conservation, Local Nature Reserve, ancient woodland or country park is within about 100 m of Keymer Close’s line, and it is outside the High Weald National Landscape. Protected nature in Hastings
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).
Partly adopted. East Sussex County Council’s map shows part of Keymer Close as adopted and part not. The county looks after the adopted part (report a problem to East Sussex Highways); the rest may be a private road or a private street. The county’s map shows which part is which.
