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

South East

Basingstoke and Deane must plan for 1,166 homes a year

Basingstoke and Deane has to plan for 1,166 new homes a year, 5,830 over 5 years.

No brownfield cover figure for Basingstoke and Deane. Only 74% 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 Basingstoke and Deane has no brownfield land.

Delivery

Over the three years to March 2025, Basingstoke and Deane delivered 2,415 of the 2,558 homes it was required to: 94%. The government's published consequence: the council must publish an action plan.

What is on the brownfield register

117 live sites covering 139 hectares, of which 21 have no planning permission yet. 30 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.
