Archaeological Notification Areas (ANA)

Areas of Archaeological Potential (AAP) on the Local Plan policies map have been replaced with Archaeological Notification Areas (ANA).

Kent County Council (KCC) created these areas using mapped archaeological information. They show when applications may need archaeological input and when to consult KCC's heritage conservation team.

The grades of consultation are as follows:

1. do not consult KCC
2. consult KCC on major planning applications or equivalent only (including reserved matters)
3. consult KCC on planning applications involving 1-9 new dwellings or equivalent, or is a major application (including reserved matters)
4. consult KCC on all planning applications involving groundworks (including reserved matters)
5. consult KCC on all planning applications.

These grades help streamline the planning process by focusing consultation efforts where archaeological interest is most likely.
