Glossary

Planning can be a hard subject to work out if you do not know the language associated with it.

To help you understand the common terms used the Planning Portal has put together a Glossary to help guide you through the planning process.


It is a summary of around 500 phrases relating to land use and planning matters ranging from new development and regeneration to conservation and environmental protection.

For further information please visit the  Glossary section on the Planning Portal website.
