Notes
The Plan will deliver 18,852 dwellings between 1 April 2025 and 31 March 2041. The local housing need for South Worcestershire was rebased at 1 April 2025, resulting in a housing need of 1,147 dwellings per year. The site at Mitton (SWDPR 57) is allocated for 1,000 dwellings in total, 500 dwellings of which will count towards meeting Tewkesbury Borough Council’s housing need. The annual housing requirement for the remainder of the Plan period is therefore derived from local housing need plus the 500 dwellings for unmet need of Tewkesbury Borough
Council, which is 1,178 dwellings annually, or 18,852 dwellings for the remainder of the Plan period to 2041 (1,147 dwellings x 16 years, plus the 500 dwellings for unmet need of Tewkesbury Borough Council).
