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

London

Enfield must plan for 2,639 homes a year

Enfield has to plan for 2,639 new homes a year, 13,195 over 5 years.

No brownfield cover figure for Enfield. Only 0% 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 Enfield has no brownfield land.

Delivery

Over the three years to March 2025, Enfield delivered 2,862 of the 3,738 homes it was required to: 77%. The government's published consequence: the council must add a 20% buffer to its land supply.

What is on the brownfield register

27 live sites covering 50 hectares, of which 0 have no planning permission yet. 27 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.
