What rustic land in Toreno allows and holds, for the municipality as a whole. For a particular plot, open it in the map: the report answers for that exact point.
Can you build a house on rustic land?
Castilla y León allows a new house on rustic land only when a farm needs it. Otherwise it has to go in a village, or restore a building.
Ley 5/1999, art. 23.1.e. A town plan can be stricter.
Plan in force: Normas Subsidiarias (an older, simpler plan), from 2015. The region's planning viewer ↗
The national urban information system (SIU) maps the land class for 100% of the municipality.
Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.
Is there water?
IGME records 4 wells and boreholes in Toreno. Half of the 3 with a depth found water at 130–150 m.
Ground: 55% low permeability, local groundwater only; 38% practically impermeable; 5.4% porous aquifer, high productivity.
Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
