Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs)
Current Supplementary Planning Documents
The Local Plan alongside the London Plan are the key planning documents for Haringey. Much of the detail to support Local Plan policies is contained in accompanying documents called Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs).
Supplementary planning documents expand on the council's adopted policies to provide more detailed information than can be contained in the policies themselves. They give guidance to the public, applicants and developers when making planning applications.
For more information on Haringey's SPDs, please use the following links:
- Planning Obligations
- Sustainable Design and Construction
- House Extensions in South Tottenham
- Finsbury Park Town Centre
The council also issues Supplementary Planning Guidance notes where these can usefully aid developers undertaking work in certain parts of the borough where there may be specific planning issues to consider. These guidance notes may form the basis for future SPD's.

For development within conservation areas, the council has published Conservation Area Appraisals and Management Plans, which give further guidance on specific conservation areas, and should be referred to for relevant proposals.
