Brownfield Land could provide Affordable Plots for Self-Builders

At least one million homes could be built on brownfield sites, offering a significant opportunity for self and custom build projects, an investigation has shown.

The Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) recently revealed that 17,656 plots already identified by planning authorities would provide enough space for a minimum of 1,052,124 homes, with two-thirds of them deliverable within five years.

The term brownfield refers to previously developed land, including sites formerly used for industrial, commercial or even agricultural purposes. Since April 2017, local authorities have been required to keep brownfield registers, providing up-to-date and publicly available information on brownfield land suitable for housing.
