Check That Field shows how likely any field in England is to be built on for housing. Search a postcode, a town or village, or draw the field on the map, and you get a score from 0 to 100, a band from Low to Very high, and the outlook over the next 5 and 15 years. The score is worked out by fixed rules from published records: Local Plans, planning applications, Green Belt and other protections, flood zones and more. It’s worked out the same way for every field, and no one adjusts a score by hand.

What it is and isn’t

A score is an estimate built from published data, not a prediction. It is never planning or legal advice, and it is not a substitute for a conveyancer’s local searches.
Where we hold the council’s plans and planning register, a score is a fair reflection of the pressure on a field. Where we don’t yet, the report says so and marks the score low confidence. See Coverage. Ready to look? Open the map.
