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.
Planning appeals on this street
The planning committee's appeal reports list each appeal against a planning decision; the Planning Inspectorate decides them, and its own data lists those it has decided, each linking to its decision letter. Each is shown with its latest outcome.

None of St. Michael's Place’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 St. Michael's Place’s line, and it is outside the High Weald National Landscape. Protected nature in Hastings

Air quality nearby
The council's nitrogen dioxide tube at Carlise Parade, about 120 m from the middle of this street: an annual mean of 16.5 µg/m³ in 2025.
Every year the report gives: 2021: 19.3, 2022: 19.1, 2023: 16.9, 2024: 16.0, 2025: 16.5 (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
