What land without planning permission we want near Pinner
For land on the edges of Pinner with no consent yet, the first questions are access, flood risk and how the council's current plan treats the area. Pinner is in Greater London, about 12 miles north-west of central London. Nearby places include Ruislip, Harrow and Northolt.
- Land the owner has put forward to a local plan or call for sites
- Plots within towns and villages that have never been built on
- Land where a previous application was refused for reasons that could be overcome
- Land of any size, including single plots
Outer London, from Romford and Bexley to Uxbridge, Barnet, Croydon and Sutton, contains most of the capital's remaining land opportunities. Around the edge, the Metropolitan Green Belt and Metropolitan Open Land protect open space, and a small part of the Kent Downs National Landscape lies in the south-east. Sites usually come forward as small infill plots, garage courts, backland, former commercial buildings and occasional grey belt land on the urban fringe.
