Mann Street 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 December 2025: 1 planning application, 1 planning decision and 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
Every planning application and decision we hold for Mann Street, 1 in all (1 granted and 0 refused), newest first. Our record starts on 21 April 2026, from the council’s weekly lists; earlier applications here are on the council’s own planning search. An application made before then appears only if it was decided since, and then without its earlier dates.

Conservation, listed buildings and protected trees
None of the town’s 18 conservation areas reaches Mann Street 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 Mann Street’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 Mann Street’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 Mann Street’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).
“Potholes and surface degradation: This entire stretch is littered with potholes, dips, loose gravel and is a hazard to pedestrians, cyclists and motorists. It needs re-surfacing.”
Adopted highway: yes. Mann Street is on East Sussex County Council’s map of adopted roads, so the county looks after it: report a problem to East Sussex Highways.
Of the 1 problem reported near Mann Street 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.
