About the historical planning search

You can use this search to find documents for planning applications submitted between 1946 and 2000.

Due to some documents being very old, image quality may be poor.

Documents you can search for include:

  • plans
  • decision notices
  • both decision notices and plans together.

What you'll need

To search for a historical planning application you'll either need:

  • the application number
  • part of the application number.

To meet GDPR rules, only decision notices and plans are publicly available in unredacted form. If you need other documents relating to an application, if the documents are available, they will be provided with personal information removed. To request other documents, email planning.representations@medway.gov.uk

You can email us planning.representations@medway.gov.uk with the email subject historical planning applications.
