What Busk Map promises

Check your permit

Busk Map never confirms a pitch is legal: check your permit conditions.

A pitch is ranked from taste, estimated activity, events and the rules we can read. The council's published zones and your own permit decide whether you may play there on the day. The plan is a suggestion, not permission.
