Some new developments may be on the way as local councils are currently considering a number of homes plans.

These seven plans could result in more houses and apartments being built in the area if they are approved by Watford Borough Council, Three Rivers District Council, or Hertsmere Borough Council.

Applications can be viewed through the relevant council’s planning portal.
