5 Year Housing Land Supply Report 2025

Five Year Supply as of 31st March 2025

  1. The total supply figure is calculated by adding the number of expected completions over the next five years on:
    • C2 Permissions (A)
    • The allocation sites (B)
    • Large sites with Full Permission, not yet commenced (C)
    • Large sites with Outline Permission (D)
    • Large sites that have commenced (E)
    • Small sites (F)
    • Oversupply (G)

The Total Supply is:

76 (A) + 75 (B) + 85 (C) + 116 (D) + 757 (E) + 215 (F) = 1,324 Dwellings

  1. Annualised Requirement: Based on Local Housing Need the 5-year requirement figure is 1555 (311x5). Considering surplus, the 5-year requirement reduces to 1,019 (1555-536 (G)). With a 5% buffer the 5-year requirement is 1,070, which equates to 214 dwellings per year.
  2. The Annualised Requirement using the Standard Methodology with surplus is 214 dwellings per year. Therefore the 5-year supply is calculated as follows:

1324 (TOTAL SUPPLY) ÷ 214 (ANNUALISED REQUIREMENT) = 6.2 Year Supply
