Assesses the efficacy and relevance of the Special Landscape Area (SLA) designation within the British planning system. Provides critical assessment of SLAs across Wales which reveals confusion and contradiction within the guidance. Highlights an emerging discourse between planners who seek to protect landscape using SLAs and those who advocate a more holistic approach. Concludes that the emphasis on designation as a prime tool for landscape planning is outdated and is in need of urgent reform towards a more multifunctional assessment of landscape character.
