Cotswold must plan for 1,054 homes a year
Cotswold has to plan for 1,054 new homes a year, 5,270 over 5 years.
No brownfield cover figure for Cotswold. 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 Cotswold has no brownfield land.
Delivery
Over the three years to March 2025, Cotswold delivered 945 of the 1,392 homes it was required to: 68%. The government's published consequence: the presumption in favour of sustainable development applies.
What is on the brownfield register
52 live sites covering 67 hectares, of which 8 have no planning permission yet. 52 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.
