What allocated and promoted land we want near Chadderton
Around Chadderton, allocated sites and land put forward to the council are usually the furthest along, so they can often move faster than land at an earlier stage. In Greater Manchester, Chadderton sits about 6 miles north-east of Manchester; Oldham and Royton are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Sites submitted to a call for sites (England) or candidate site register (Wales)
- Land identified in a draft plan or housing land availability assessment
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
Greater Manchester is a dense conurbation centred on Manchester and Salford, ringed by towns such as Bolton, Wigan, Oldham, Rochdale, Bury, Stockport and Altrincham. Green Belt separates many of these towns and covers the moorland fringe, so most housing land is previously developed: former mills, industrial estates, yards and town-centre sites. Grey belt and small edge-of-settlement fields can also come forward on the urban fringe.
