LVIA Consultant in Manchester and the North West

Local landscape expertise for planning applications across the North of England.

Local knowledge, national standards

Terra Loci is based in Manchester and works across the North West, Yorkshire, the Midlands and North Wales, typically within two hours of the city. Being local means quicker site visits, photography timed for the right weather, and knowledge of the landscapes and planning authorities involved.

We know the pressures that shape development here: Green Belt and grey belt release on the edge of towns, the setting of the Peak District National Park and the South Pennines, and the growing number of solar, battery storage and grid connection schemes across the region.

What we provide

  • LVIA and Landscape and Visual Appraisal for local planning applications

  • Green Belt and grey belt landscape evidence

  • Townscape assessment for urban schemes in Manchester and surrounding towns

  • Technical photography at short notice

  • Landscape design and planting plans to discharge conditions

Why Terra Loci

  • Based in Manchester, so site visits are quick and cost-effective.

  • Experience of the region's councils and its nearby protected landscapes.

  • We also work nationally, so local clients get the same standard we bring to NSIP work.
