Lincolnshire, as used here, includes the Humber towns of Grimsby, Scunthorpe and Cleethorpes as well as Lincoln, Boston, Grantham, Spalding, Stamford and Skegness. There is no Green Belt, but the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape covers part of the county and much of the south and east lies in low-lying fenland and coastal marsh at high flood risk. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, farm buildings, village infill and former industrial land.
Before we make an offer in Stamford
Character of the street
New homes need to suit the building line, height and spacing of the street.
Parking and access
A safe access and enough parking can decide small schemes.
Trees
Protected trees or trees in a conservation area can limit what fits.
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.
