Land to the west and north of the site is undeveloped greenfield pasture. There is a small range of facilities and services to the east of the site at Lymington Barn. The site is undeveloped greenfield pasture with mature trees and hedgerows on its boundaries. There is no public access across the site and limited views into the site from the public realm to the east. The land is relatively flat, with the centre of the site forming part of a broad ridge within the wider landscape. It forms part of the rural environs of the settlement. Housing to the east is a mix of house types including detached, semi-detached and terraced houses, all of which are laid out in a grid of cul-de-sacs and through-loops. Plot sizes are small or very small in comparison to many parts of Four Marks & South Medstead.
