Planning history searches
If you are unable to find what you are looking for using the searches above, or require a planning history search, you can contact us with the details and we will do a search for you. Your request to us must include a plan that clearly identifies the property or site. This can be a screenshot taken from a map, it doesn’t need to be an official document.
