Welcome to the St. Paul's Strategic View Corridor Calculator.

For any selected corridor this application will return the maximum permitted height of any proposed development at an input distance from St. Pauls Cathedral, London. The distance must be measured perpendicular to the end of the viewing plane and therefore parallel to the view.

Future revision of this calculator will allow for Ordnance Survey referencing to be used in place of this measurement system.
