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

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 ↗

Listed buildings

Historic England’s list has no entry that names Stanhope Place or stands beside its line. Every listed building in Hastings

Tree preservation orders

The council’s map data has no tree preservation order within about 40 m of Stanhope Place’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 ↗
