The map displayed below offers an overview of Green Belt land in England. Utilize the postcode search feature or scroll through the map to determine whether your land is situated within or in close proximity to the Green Belt. Green Belt areas are highlighted in green. While there are various planning constraints such as flood zones and national parks, the primary emphasis on this page is directed toward Green Belt considerations.
Green Belt in The UK
The size of the Green Belt has more than doubled since 1979 – from 721,500 hectares to 1,634,700 hectares. This is approximately 13% of England and covers one and a half times as much land as our towns and cities added together.
Living in the Green Belt doesn’t mean you can’t explore your permitted development rights! Just keep in mind, though, that Listed Buildings, flats, and maisonettes don’t fall under this scheme. Being in the Green Belt can add a few extra considerations to your project.
