The Green Belt map, updated for 2024

Here is our interactive Green Belt map, a crucial tool for anyone thinking of seeking planning permission in the areas surrounding English cities and towns

You may probably already know that if your land lies just inside a Green Belt, planning permission becomes much more difficult to obtain. The fact is getting planning permission to build on the Green Belt may be tricky - but it’s certainly not impossible!

There are very few England-wide maps of the Green Belt, and most of those are a few years out of date. Our Green Belt map below uses the latest available government data.

So if you want to know if the property / land you own or are considering buying is in the Green Belt, just type in the postcode and see whether it is in one of the large green-shaded zones. It’s as simple as that.

(NB: Small, unconnected green areas on the map, like parks and playing fields, are not part of the Green Belt but are usually protected.)
