Badenoch and Strathspey Local Plan

The Badenoch and Strathspey Local Plan was adopted in September 1997. Only small parts of the Badenoch and Strathspey (bordering Nairnshire and Inverness-shire) Local Plan remain relevant.

For those parts of Badenoch and Strathspey which lie within the Cairngorms National Park, the Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) have adopted a new, replacement plan. The Badenoch and Strathspey Local Plan no longer has effect in the CNPA area. The CNPA is also a preparing a new local development plan for its area.

The Highland-wide Local Development Plan was adopted on 5 April 2012 and supersedes the General Policies and other related material of this Local Plan. A Parliamentary Order has been made to retain other elements within this Local Plan. This provides the necessary clarity about which parts of the Local Plan continues in force alongside the Highland-wide Local Development Plan until such time as the relevant Area Local Development Plans is adopted. A full schedule of the retained elements of the following plan is contained within Appendix 7 of the HwLDP. Click here to view or download the updated version of Appendix 7.
