Where the figures come from

Applications and decisions come from the council’s planning website, gathered by UK PlanIt. We count each area as a circle round its middle, the same as on its MeBabber page. Some dates are estimated from the application number, and we never show applicants’ names.

See our sources and their licences. Figures update every night.
