Construction Trends in Gedling
Gedling's emerging Local Development Plan sets out a need for around 6,045 new homes by 2043 once existing allocations and permissions are accounted for, with 14 potential locations identified for new housing across the borough.

Away from these strategic sites, established areas including Carlton, Arnold, and Netherfield keep a strong stock of inter-war and post-war housing, generating a steady flow of extensions, loft conversions, and garage conversions.
