Simple, Easy to use web site with quick access to the right plans. Ideal for planning applications.

Of the two options on the Planning Portal website, this was the easier to use. However, I think there could be ways to make it more friendly - eg. something telling you the real-life dimensions of the shape you're drawing; more about what you need to do for a site plan and for a location plan.

I bought the plan to show the boundary of a Church for a planning application. The complete outside boundary as required did not show as the instructions said it would - it should numerous areas in the Churchyard as separate parts and there did not appear to be anyway to join them suitably. I ended up (after having it returned from the planning department) having to import the map into photoshop in black and white and put the line around the outside myself in red.

I found it difficult to download to start with but the help i got from Ben? was very helpful and I got there in the end.

A very poor experience: the Plan was REJECTED by the Planning Authority as inaccurate as it doesn't show a boundary between curtilage (my garden) and agricultural land ("a paddock") although there is no physical boundary. As you deny any responsibility for mapping errors I've just wasted £25.00 and although I've shown the Planner I don't need to spend £400+ for "change of use" i.e. to a garden due to prior approved application. I have now been sent a list of queries more relevant to a major urban development than a wooden shed (20 x 12 ft) albeit in an AONB e.g. scale plans for all trees and hedges on-site and adjacent properties, drainage etc.

Thank you for your review and I am sorry you have a negative experience on our site. It is impossible for a boundary to be set for a map without the customer having selected the boundary with the red line. If a customer inadvertently adds incorrect boundaries to their map and receives an incorrect area we are pleased to offer a 70% refund so that they may re order a correct selection. If the underlying Ordinance Survey map is incorrect we are happy to provide a full refund. The majority of our customers are satisfied with our service and it is a rare occurrence for a map to be incorrect. I trust you will have a more positive experience if you use our service again.

Comprehensive choice of sizes and locations, giving adequate details and local names for added information.

We found it very difficult to measure correctly when line drawing and edit or undo no existent which means we had to print it of without the bit we wanted to show. Rendering the plan useless

I am sorry you found our site difficult to use. It does require accurate input from the customer in terms of drawing the boundaries with the red line. If you have inadvertently drawn incorrect boundaries and received the wrong selection of the map we are happy to refund 70% of the cost to enable you to re order if required.

Found out we needed to make a planning application for a 2m high fence on a public highway and used an on line planning portal which directed us to your service. Bought the location plan and site plan to include in our electronic submission and found your service quick, easy to use and good value for money. Thank you.

The Council refused to accept the plans as they were incorrect, wasted time and money!

Does what it says on the tin. Seems a bit pricey and to me the north marker is a bit unclear which direction is actually north

I needed planning drawings for a couple of garages for a sports club and didn't want to hire a professional just to produce a planning drawing for 2 garages. This system worked fine - not that I've got the planning permission yet!

Complete rip off. Only bought it because the local council insist on it for planning applications, makes me wonder how much commission the planning portal is getting. It's not even an accurate plan.

Reasonably easy to locate the plot you are interested in. Fair price. Good starting point for the answers I am looking for regarding a boundary and plot size. Will use this service again. I did not have to contact the company, thought the question below refered to my actual purchase. Can not delete the box I ticked.

Ok Frustrating tgat i cant just buy a plan at a scale i choose. Scottish planning stipulates 50:1 or 100:1 for site plans, but you dont sell those scales. Bought map electronically, why would you do anything else these days?
