Newmans Way at a glance
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 Newmans Way 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 Newmans Way’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 Newmans Way’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.”
High Weald National Landscape ↗ (National Landscape (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty)): Newmans Way’s line passes within about 40 m of it.
Natural England’s designations within about 100 m of the street’s mapped line. Each official page says what is protected there. 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).
“Right way dug up unsafe: House that’s been parking on public right way verge now been dug up to claim the land for parking complete unsafe and illegal. Council should come reinstate public land and fine the person.”
Adopted highway: yes. Newmans Way 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 Newmans Way 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 Ore Church, about 430 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
