What the search looks for
Each line is a filter on the map, so you can widen or tighten any of them.
Open the search- 1 ha or more
- Open
- Outside national parks
- Two or more major schemes approved within 1 km in 5 years
On every site
- The council's housing position
- The Housing Delivery Test result, the age of the local plan, and homes added a year against the number the council needs.
- The edge of the settlement
- Distance to the built-up area, the green belt share, and the addresses already on the land.
- Who holds it
- The kind of owner, from HM Land Registry: a company, a council, a housing association or a private owner.
Why these rules
Council planning registers. National parks and the Broads are left out: national policy refuses major development there other than in exceptional circumstances and limits the scale of the rest (NPPF, August 2026, N4); set National park to Any under Constraints to include them. Woodland is left out.
