Housing Delivery Test result for Fylde

What the public record actually shows for Fylde. Every figure below is measured or published, with its sample and its date. Nothing here is an estimate, and none of it predicts what a particular application will do.

How long decisions took

We have not measured decision times for Fylde. That is a gap in our coverage, not a finding about this council: our crawl of council registers reaches some authorities and not others, and we would rather say so than borrow a national average.

Housing Delivery Test

Fylde measured 175% in the 2025 Housing Delivery Test — consequence: None.

MHCLG records 1,424 homes delivered against a three-year requirement of 815.

Published by MHCLG on 2026-08-17. This is the most recent measurement published, not a current-year figure, and it is the number that determines whether the presumption in favour of sustainable development is engaged.

Planning appeals in Fylde

15 allowed in full, 26 dismissed, from 41 planning appeals decided for Fylde between 01/01/2021 and 31/07/2026.

We do not turn that into a percentage: under 100 decided appeals, a rate looks like a finding and behaves like noise. The counts are the honest form. This is not a statement that no appeals succeeded. Only refused applications get appealed, so these are a self-selected minority of decisions.

What this page is not

It does not tell you what constrains a particular site in Fylde. Designations sit on land, not on councils. For that, run a free check on the site itself: it names every designation on or beside the boundary, states when each dataset was last collected, and says plainly where a record is not published rather than showing you a clear result.
