The West Midlands county is a dense conurbation of Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Coventry, Solihull, Walsall, Dudley and the Black Country towns. Green Belt surrounds and separates parts of the conurbation, including the Meriden Gap between Birmingham and Coventry, so most housing comes from previously developed land: former industrial and canal-side sites, yards, garage courts and town centres. Grey belt and small fringe sites around Sutton Coldfield, Solihull and Aldridge can also come forward.
What decides whether a site in Halesowen works
Displaced parking
Councils often want to know where current users will park.
Overlooking
Courts are usually close to existing homes, so design must protect privacy.
Licences and tenants
Garage licences are usually easy to end, but we check the terms.
Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.
