New housing in Teignbridge District Council
We read Teignbridge District Council's planning register every day. We hold 15,439 of its planning applications going back to 2016, and 53 of those made in the last 12 months are for new homes.
It delivered 78% of the homes it needed in the 2025 Housing Delivery Test, below 85%, so it must add a 20% buffer to its housing land supply.
