Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment - Updated November 2015

This 2015 update has a base date of 1 April 2015.  It takes account of any changes since 1 April 2013 including planning permissions, houses under construction and completions.  It also includes any suitable new sites which

have been proposed since April 2013, arising from landholder / developer interest or as a result of site information from within the council.  It also removes sites that are no longer considered to have potential for housing,

including sites secured for non-residential uses.
