A block plan usually shows the siting of a project in relation to Ordnance Survey Maps. Conventions are used to depict boundaries, roads and other details. Depending on the size of the project, the recommended scales are:

* 1 : 2500
* 1 : 1250
* 1 : 500

It is common for the term ‘block plan’ to be used interchangeably with ‘site plan’. They are both similar in that they illustrate the development site along with the exact position of the proposed building, as well as any access roads, car park, drainage runs, vegetation, trees, utilities, and so on. They should both indicate the development site and access in red outline, as well as any other land owned by the developer in blue outline.

If more of the surrounding area beyond the boundaries of the site is required, a planning authority may request a block plan to be submitted as well as a site plan. This can help the authority determine the possible impacts that the proposed project may have on the wider area, for example, relating to the natural environment or neighbours’ privacy.

If it is a large site or if a wider indication of the impact on the surrounding area is necessary, then a location plan may need to be submitted to the planning authority.
