Brownfield register

What GainScout tells you when it finds this

Planning context · warns

This is on the brownfield register, the council's list of previously developed sites it considers suitable for housing. That development interest usually competes with a thirty year habitat scheme on the same ground, so read the register entry before counting on BNG here.

Checked against planning.data.gov.uk the moment you run a check, and stamped with the date.

Why it matters for Biodiversity Net Gain

A finding here usually limits what a BNG scheme can claim on this land, or adds consents and conditions before any work can start. Better to know from your desk than after a site visit.

A check also asks the other 20 counted sources at the same time, so this finding always arrives in context.
