Hello again... 

Can anyone point me to a thread advising re PDL, please? (Does it differ from Brownfield land?)

Many thanks!

[member=190972]Dookie[/member] - It would seem that none of us knows !!  However, where did you pick up on "previously developed land" and what have got in mind?

Previously developed land (PDL), often called brownfield land, is land that was developed but is now vacant or derelict, or currently in use with known potential for redevelopment.

Thank you for replying and for the links... I just wondered how PDL differs from Brownfield land as when I call it brownfield, the planning dept correct it to Previously Developed Land...
I have a plot with a redundant building on it which is on the green belt and wondering about the development potential... Greenbelt obviously goes against residential development (unless you have the means to pay a substantial amount towards 'mitigation of the environmental damage caused by development'... whatever that is, but sounds like free money for the council) and this building has been stripped of its permitted development rights by an article 4 direction... whether this can be revoked or not remains to be seen.

PDL is just a new name for brownfield
