Important Note On Scale

The East of England Landscape Character Framework maps the landscapes of the area at a scale of 1:100000. Therefore the boundaries between landscapes are only indicative of the change of the physical and cultural patterns between areas. This means that when working at a site scale, especially when close to boundaries, users should be careful to identify which landscape type the land parcel belongs to, based on its characteristics. Users should also refer to the relevant local characterisations for more detailed information.
