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 street index lists these properties on The Bourne under Article 4 directions, which take away some building work that wouldn’t otherwise need planning permission:

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 (3)

From Historic England’s list: 2 whose list entry names The Bourne and 1 whose map point is beside its line. The list entry says what is protected, which can include attached walls and railings.

Tree preservation orders near The Bourne

Orders with a protected tree, group or woodland within about 40 m of the street’s line, from the council’s map data.

  • TPO 78: made 21 January 1983, confirmed 2 December 1983; 39 trees, 20 groups of trees, 1 area of trees, 1 woodland in the order. The order (PDF) ↗

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 ↗

Flood zones, the coast and protected nature

Flood zones

None of The Bourne’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.”

A street’s line is not an address. For a particular address, use the Environment Agency’s Check your long term flood risk ↗; for a planning site, its Flood map for planning ↗. Flood warnings in force now are on Live now.

Protected nature

  • Hastings Country Park LNR ↗ (Local Nature Reserve): The Bourne’s line passes within about 100 m of it.
  • High Weald National Landscape ↗ (National Landscape (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty)): The Bourne’s line passes within about 100 m of it.
  • Hastings Country Park (Country park): The Bourne’s line passes within about 100 m of it.
