    Summary

    • Decide first whether a plan is necessary. The answer will be yes if it is not possible to accurately identify the extent of the land leased from a verbal description alone.
    • Old or outdated plans should not be re-used.
    • Plans must be drawn to a recognised scale (metric only) - if the plan has been reduced in size, an amended scale should be shown.
    • Any dimensions shown must be in metric units only, to two decimal places.
    • Plans must show sufficient detail to enable the land in the lease to be identified on the Ordnance Survey map.
    • Statements of disclaimer must not be used - registrations based on a plan bearing a disclaimer will be rejected.
    • Edgings or other colour references should not obscure detail on the plan.
    • Copy plans attached to a copy of a lease must be an identical to the original plan.
