We are a privately owned planning consultancy which was established by Andy Harwood in 2003. At Urban and Rural Planning, we offer professional advice from Chartered Town Planners to help you find a way through a complicated system. We are based in Cornwall and Plymouth but work for clients across the whole of the UK.If you enter into the development process without experienced Chartered Town Planners on-board, you may find it a frustrating process. In our experience, Local Planning Authorities can take unreasonable positions on some issues and it can be crucial to be represented by professionals who know what is or is not reasonable.We are members of the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) and you can be confident of our professionalism and dedication.
