* While most polygons with this form will have a primary function of Private Gardens, this will not always be the case due to the Function Hierarchy.
Woodland
Areas of land covered with trees with an area size larger than 0.1hectares and width greater than 5m.
Open Semi-Natural
Areas of undeveloped or previously developed land with natural habitats (except woodland) for example, scrub, heath and rough grassland.
Inland Water
Static water bodies (for example, reservoirs, lakes and ponds) and rivers above the normal tidal limit.
Beach Or Foreshore
Areas of beach above the tidal minimum low tide (for example, sand and shingle).
Manmade Surface
Manmade areas within sites used for exercise and recreation (for example, paths and car parks within a public park).
Multi-Surface
Polygons which may be comprised of multiple surface types, such as grass, decking and hard standing making up a private garden polygon. This applies to Private Gardens* and is generated from the Topography Layer Descriptive Term of Multi-Surface for the corresponding polygon.
