A 1:200 scale block plan is a detailed Ordnance Survey MasterMap-based plan showing a small area, typically your property and immediate surroundings. It's a large-scale view (highly detailed) commonly required for planning and building control purposes.
Many UK local authorities—especially in London—require 1:200 scale block plans (also known as site plans) to clearly illustrate property boundaries, buildings, roads, and access arrangements in detailed clarity.
Our 1:200 scale block plans are available in PDF, TIFF, JPG, PNG, DOCX, and BMP formats. For CAD users, DWG/DXF formats are available, and GIS users can request vector formats such as GML, GeoPackage, or GeoTIFF. You can order these specialised formats on our CAD OS MasterMap page.
You can order block plans in paper sizes ranging from A4 to A0, available in colour or black & white, and with optional gridlines. Each plan includes a north arrow, scale bar, OS licence number, and national grid coordinates.
Digital delivery typically takes about 30 minutes via email, available daily from 7 am to 11 pm. Larger or complex orders may take slightly longer. If your order doesn't arrive promptly, please check your spam or junk folder before contacting us.
Prices start from approximately £14.39 + VAT for an A4-sized plan. The cost may vary depending on your selected paper size and the area coverage required.
Yes—our 1:200 block plans are based on the OS MasterMap Topography Layer, include the required OS licence information, and fully meet submission requirements for planning portals, Land Registry, utility providers, and building control authorities.
No, you don't need your own licence. UK Map Centre provides a fully compliant OS licence under their agreement with Ordnance Survey. Your delivered plan includes the required licence details.
Please note: The included licence is a basic print/submission licence and isn't suitable for importing into CAD or GIS software. For GIS or CAD-compatible licensing, see our dedicated CAD or GIS products.
Yes, you can add red property outlines or other annotations. After purchasing your plan, use our online redline tool or your own editing software (such as Photoshop or MS Paint). We recommend securely saving your original file so you can edit it multiple times as needed.
You can select any small, custom area around your chosen property or site—you're not restricted to predefined OS tiles. We offer complete coverage of Great Britain (excluding Northern Ireland).
