How do I create a Location Plan?

What is a location plan?

A location plan is the “WHERE” aspect of your planning application. It shows where you are proposing your development and will include a fairly large area around the development site. It is typically submitted at a scale of 1:1250.

What is the purpose of a location plan?

It helps to show wider impact on the location. If your planning authority requests both a block plan and a site plan they will require more detail of the area around the proposed development, details further out than your boundaries.

What should a Location Plan show?

Location plans show roads that are nearby, other buildings, and other properties and parcels of land in the area. They’ll usually include the site at a scale of 1:1250 and the precise position of the building, any other structures inside the boundaries, other land owned by the same person, and details such as car parking.
