I will do an ecology desk study for UK planning

Before any survey or planning submission, you need to know what the site is up against. That includes nearby protected sites, priority habitats, species records and any planning constraints.

I research your site using public datasets such as MAGIC, Natural England data and local biological records. I then turn the findings into a clear desk study report that flags risks early. This helps you plan the right surveys and avoid surprises later.

What you get:

Statutory and non-statutory designated sites within the search radius

Priority habitats, ancient woodland and nutrient neutrality checks

Protected species risk summary (bats, newts, badgers, birds and more)

Maps showing sites and constraints

Recommendations for further surveys

This service is ideal for developers, land buyers, architects and planning consultants doing early due diligence.

Note: This is a desk-based study. Local records centre data is ordered at the buyer's cost where required.
