Since November 2025: 1 planning application. 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.

Conservation, listed buildings and protected trees
None of the town’s 18 conservation areas reaches Manhattan Gardens 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 Manhattan 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 ↗
None of Manhattan 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.”
No Site of Special Scientific Interest, Special Area of Conservation, Local Nature Reserve, ancient woodland or country park is within about 100 m of Manhattan Gardens’s line, and it is outside the High Weald National Landscape. Protected nature in Hastings

Who looks after this street
Not adopted. East Sussex County Council’s map names Manhattan Gardens but shows none of it as adopted, so the county doesn’t maintain it. It may be a private road or a private street (an unadopted highway): “Private streets are also known as unadopted public highways and are different to private roads. Private streets are also maintained by the owners rather than the County Council but are open to the public.” (the council’s page)

The postcodes are those of addresses on this street that the record holds (from planning applications and other notices), so a street's other postcodes may be missing. Gigabit-capable means full fibre or cable; Ofcom reports full fibre only for whole council areas.

Air quality nearby
The council's nitrogen dioxide tube at Ore Church, about 250 m from the middle of this street: an annual mean of 18.3 µg/m³ in 2025.
Every year the report gives: 2021: 20.7, 2022: 20.0, 2023: 17.7, 2024: 17.7, 2025: 18.3 (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
