Our 1:1,250 scale location plans fit on to A4 paper. These come in 2 different sizes; 2 hectare and 4 hectare. This scale is ideal for small and medium sized developments.
Our 1:2,500 scale location plans fit on to A4 paper. These cover an area of 16 hectares on the ground. This size location plan is used for large sized developments, or developments in a rural area.
We can make 1:1,250 scale and 1:2,500 scale location plans to fit any standard size of paper. These can cover in excess of 16 hectares if needed. These plans are used for large developments. To enquire please see our bespoke maps page.
If you prefer, we can make your site plan for you, give us a call on 01856 898 022 and we'll take your order by phone.
To be suitable for your planning application your site plan must show the whole of the development site, to a standard metric scale. It must be a standard paper size, and scale exactly when printed.
There are a number of items that must be shown on the location plan, e.g. buildings, roads, footpaths on and adjacent to the site.
The location plan should clearly show your proposed development.

Did what the local authority wanted, at very reasonable cost.
The information on UK Planning Maps is precise and clear. However, the Land Registry maps are Black and White and may not at first sight be seen to be correctly shown on UK Planning Maps. But the information is correct, very clear, excellent and easy to use.
Going back drawing plans after many years absence I have found that everything has changed. (I am 87). I found the UK Planning Maps site most useful and I am extremely pleased with the downloads and the paper maps they have supplied. I will probably take UK Planning Maps up on their offer of help later in the process of producing plans and maps for the modifications and additions to my site .
Competitive cost - Cheaper than obtaining from your local council.
Spot on, convinient place to buy plans.
Easy to use site. Maps suitable for planning applications and support fast and very helpful if needed.
I'm a householder having to do an application because my house has no permitted rights-so I'm an amateur. the products of this web site allowed me to meet the needs easily and economically. I also like the idea that I'm helping the Orkney economy!
