Shaded: the Kirkby Lonsdale parish boundary (ONS, generalised).
Worth doing near the edge of the parish: the 2009 Order names parishes as they stood in 2009, and the checker tests the exact point against today’s boundary.
In a Designated Protected Area, the Capital Funding Guide requires a grant-funded Shared Ownership lease to do one of two things: cap staircasing at 80%, or allow you past 80% but require you to sell back to the landlord (or its nominee) when you move. It keeps homes in small rural communities affordable for local people.
Which of the two applies depends on the wording of your lease — and homes outside a DPA can carry similar terms under a Section 106 planning agreement. More: the 80% staircasing cap · selling a Shared Ownership home · Section 106 restrictions.
