How much land each council still has to find for new homes

London

Barnet must plan for 4,047 homes a year

Barnet has to plan for 4,047 new homes a year, 20,235 over 5 years.

No brownfield cover figure for Barnet. Only 44% of the sites on this council's brownfield register give a housing estimate, so its capacity cannot be totalled. We publish the cover figure only where at least 80% do.

That is a gap in the register, not evidence that Barnet has no brownfield land.

Delivery

Over the three years to March 2025, Barnet delivered 6,884 of the 7,092 homes it was required to: 97%. The government's published consequence: no consequence.

What is on the brownfield register

234 live sites covering 548 hectares, of which 13 have no planning permission yet. 130 of them give no housing estimate.

A council short of land has to find more, and the 17 August 2026 planning framework widened what counts as grey belt. This page describes the council's position. It does not say whether any particular piece of land would get permission.
