An analysis of Brownfield Land Registers confirms that
there is enough space on brownfield land to build at least one million new
homes, with more than two-thirds of these homes deliverable within the next
five years. Many of these sites are in
areas with a high need for housing. This means that three of the next five
years’ worth of Government housing targets could be met through building homes
on brownfield land that has already been identified. The Campaign to Protect
Rural England found that the 17,656 sites identified by local planning
authorities, covering over 28,000 hectares of land, would provide enough land
for a minimum of 1,052,124 homes. Read more on the CPRE website.
