Abstract

Comprises the 2020 update of the CPRE's state of brownfield series. The series analyses English local authority brownfield registers looking at land available to build up to 1 million homes avoiding unnecessary loss of countryside and other green spaces. The edition builds upon the questions asked in previous reports including what the current housing capacity of brownfield land is and how much of this land has planning permission. Also looks at what happened to sites that were removed from the registers.
