This site makes use of planningalerts.com, but I thought the designers of this latter site had to stop providing this excellent service due to disputes with Royal Mail about the use of postcode data. Has there been a resolution to this problem?
Planning Alerts
It's back up and running now, albeit with reduced postcode accuracy. Hopefully once the outcome of the OS consultation is revealed, everyone will be able to use to PostZon dataset for free!
