Is your land in Dinnington the kind we want?
Around Dinnington, 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. Dinnington is in South Yorkshire, about 11 miles east of Sheffield. Nearby places include Maltby, Worksop and Rotherham.
- Land allocated for housing in an adopted plan
- Sites submitted to a call for sites (England) or candidate site register (Wales)
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
Most of the area lies on the former coalfield, so mining risk assessments are common, and flood risk from the Don, Dearne and Rother affects low-lying sites around Doncaster and Rotherham. The M1 and M18 corridors, Supertram and the rail network influence where higher-density homes are supported.
