What is the purpose of the Register?

The Brownfield Land Register is a list of previously developed sites that may be suitable for potential future development. We publish the register online and update it regularly to include new sites or amendments to previously identified sites.

How are brownfield sites identified?

"Brownfield land" refers to sites that have been previously built on with a permanent structure. This excludes land in agricultural or forestry use. You can find the full official definition in the glossary to the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).

For a site to be included on the register it must be at least 0.25ha in size or capable of providing at least five homes, it must be suitable for residential development, it must be available for residential development, and such development should be achievable within fifteen years. You can find the full criteria in the Brownfield Land Regulations 2017.
