Since December 2025: 5 planning applications and 9 planning decisions. 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 The Ridge, 9 in all (6 granted and 3 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.

2026: 9 applications (6 granted and 3 refused)

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 Ridge 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 (1)

Flood zones, the coast and protected nature

Flood zones

Part of The Ridge is in Flood Zone 3 (rivers). Part of it is in Flood Zone 2 (rivers). That is the Environment Agency’s flood map for planning, which shows land that could flood from rivers or the sea, ignoring the benefits of any existing flood defences.

Locations in flood zone 3 have a high probability of flooding.

This means, in any year, land has:

  • a 1% (1 in 100) or more chance of flooding from rivers
  • a 0.5% (1 in 200) or more chance of flooding from the sea.

Flood zone 3 developments need a flood risk assessment as part of their planning application.

Locations in flood zone 2 have a medium probability of flooding.

This means, in any year, land has:

  • between a 1% and 0.1% (between 1 in 100 and 1 in 1,000) chance of flooding from rivers
  • between a 0.5% and 0.1% (between 1 in 200 and 1 in 1,000) chance of flooding from the sea.

Flood zone 2 developments need a flood risk assessment as part of their planning application.
