Our land portfolio is in the South and South East of England where there is sustained demand for additional housing that exceeds available supply. This land bank is principally brownfield and includes sites both with and without planning permission, plus strategic sites which are usually held as discount to market value options and, therefore, require only a limited amount of capital. The gross development value of our entire land bank is £3.0bn. It comprises 10,055 plots, of which 3,689 have planning consent and 2,934 where planning applications have been submitted.
