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

London

Havering must plan for 1,947 homes a year

Havering has to plan for 1,947 new homes a year, 9,735 over 5 years.

No brownfield cover figure for Havering. 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 Havering has no brownfield land.

Delivery

Over the three years to March 2025, Havering delivered 2,160 of the 5,414 homes it was required to: 40%. The government's published consequence: the presumption in favour of sustainable development applies.

What is on the brownfield register

114 live sites covering 104 hectares, of which 27 have no planning permission yet. 114 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.
