1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 GL Hearn have been instructed by Gardner Planning to undertake a critical review of the “Housing
Market Areas in Bedfordshire and surrounding areas” report produced by ORS (December 2016).
ORS was commissioned by a partnership of seven councils (Central Bedfordshire Council, Bedford
Borough Council, Luton Borough Council, Milton Keynes Council, North Hertfordshire District
Council, Stevenage Borough Council and Aylesbury Vale District Council) to undertake this work.
1.2 Paragraph 10 of the Planning Practice Guidance relating to economic and housing development
need sets out that:
“A housing market area is a geographical area defined by household demand and
preferences for all types of housing, reflecting the key functional linkages between places
where people live and work. It might be the case the housing market areas overlap. The
extent of the housing market areas identified will vary, and many will in practice cut across
various local planning authority administrative boundaries. Local planning authorities should
work with all the other constituent authorities under the duty to cooperate.”
1.3 Planning Practice Guidance identifies three main factors in defining Housing Market Areas. These
are:
• House price and rates of change in house prices
• Commuting Patterns
• Migration Patterns
1.4 In this report we review the ORS Report on housing market geographies, and undertake selected
further finer grain analysis to consider spatial relationships between Leighton Linslade and other
areas, including analysis of migration and commuting flow data to surrounding major settlements –
Luton, Milton Keynes, Aylesbury - and consideration of journey times to get to these locations. In
doing so we consider planned investment in local transport infrastructure and the potential impacts
of this.

2 CRITIQUE OF ORS HMA WORK
Review of Existing Definitions
2.1 The analysis begins with a review of existing research on housing market geographies.
2.2 National research undertaken for CLG by a consortium of academics (the CURDS Study) which is
referred to in the Planning Advisory Service’s Objectively Assessed Need and Housing Targets
report identifies the Leighton Linslade area as falling within a Milton Keynes Framework Housing
Market Area (based on 2001 commuting data). The more localised definitions also place the
Leighton Linslade area in a Milton Keynes Local HMA (based on more localised migration self-
containment).
2.3 A range of regional and local studies are also examined. DTZ research which defined housing
market areas in South East England is somewhat curious given that all of Bedfordshire falls within
the East of England Region. While no direct equivalent of the DTZ work (Sub Regional Housing
Markets in the South East (2004)) exists for the East of England there are a number of existing sub
regional definitions which merit inclusion.
2.4 The Regional Housing Strategy for the East of England: 2005-2010 published by the East of
England Regional Assembly in 2005 identified a number of housing investment sub-areas including
one which covered all of Bedfordshire including Leighton Linslade and Luton. This is shown in
Figure 1 Overleaf.
2.5 A number of further studies are derived from these definitions including the London Commuter Belt
(LCB) East SHMA and West SHMA (ORS & Savills; 2008) which is reviewed in the ORS work.
Although the LCB study is not focussed on Bedfordshire, it did contain HMA boundaries within
Central Bedfordshire which includes the Leighton Linslade within a Milton Keynes HMA.

2.6 A number of other local studies have been reviewed including Bedfordshire and Luton and the
Milton Keynes SHMAs. Again these studies point to a Milton Keynes HMA which extends to
Leighton Linslade.
2.7 It is evident that a number of previous studies have considered housing market geographies, largely
finding that Leighton Linslade falls within a common HMA to Milton Keynes. However much of this
previous evidence is based on historical data and patterns – it is appropriate to test further whether
these geographies remain appropriate, taking account of more recent evidence and planned
investment.

Analysis of Commuting Patterns
2.8 The ORS report correctly identifies commuting patterns as being one of the key factors in defining
HMA. They use the ONS 2011 Travel to Work Areas (TTWA) (published mid 2015) as the starting
point for this analysis. Again this defines the Leighton Linslade Area as falling within a Milton
Keynes TTWA.
2.9 ORS then undertake their own analysis seeking to effectively identify Travel to Work Areas within a
much wider area than Bedfordshire. Their approach uses a seven step “seed approach” whereby
each Middle Super Output Area (MSOA) is aligned to an employment centre or “seed” based on
their strongest relationship; with seeds being combined until thresholds of self-containment are
achieved.
2.10 Leighton Buzzard is initial identified as an employment centre (as are all urban areas), but this does
not extend to the Checkley Wood Area. The analysis seeks to merge employment centres and their
catchments (‘combing seeds’) until a suitable self-containment threshold is reached. The threshold
is based on the ONS target 75.0% self-containment rate for areas with a working population smaller
the 25,000 and 66.7% for areas over 25,000 workers. The ORS approach progressively defines
larger geographies through incremental increases to the self-containment rate.
2.11 With a 60%, 70% and 72% self-containment rate, ORS’ analysis identifies Leighton Linslade and
the Checkley Wood area as within a Luton focused Commuting Zone. This highlights that there is a
economic/ commuting inter-relationship between Leighton Linslade and Checkley Wood with Luton.
However consultation on and a review of these initial definitions resulted in the removal on the
Leighton Buzzard employment centre ‘seed’ (amongst others) as it was less than 20% in workforce
size of the largest ‘seed’. This approach seems somewhat arbitrary – with the evidence overall
really pointing to stronger commuting flows to Luton.
2.12 This process which ORS undertook (following consultation) resulted in the Leighton Linslade area
being re-designated on a MSOA basis rather than as a whole (as it is effectively ‘de-designated as
an employment centre in its own right). In the consequent analysis, the Leighton Linslade area falls
within the Milton Keynes Commuting Zone, although the Checkley Wood area falls within the Luton
Commuting Zone (at 72% self-containment rate).
2.13 The ORS work recognises that the use of MSOA in less populated areas (including Checkley
Wood) results in TTWA boundaries as being “relatively imprecise”. As such a simplified (although
finer grain) analysis is then run using Census Output Areas (OA). This sought to identify firstly
areas where 50% of residents commuting to the seed clusters previously identified and secondly
where a simple majority of residents worked.
Leighton Linslade and Checkley Wood HMA Report, February 2016
GL Hearn Page 8 of 14
C:\Users\pcm\Desktop\Checkley Wood Report.docx
2.14 The first of these definitions did not identify the majority of Leighton Linslade as commuting to any
specific employment centre/seed – effectively showing that there is not a strong commuting flow to
either Luton or Milton Keynes (based on over 50% commuting to either). This strongly points to the
existence of a diverse set of commuting relationships – with commuting in a number of directions to
different employment centres, as opposed to a dominant flow.
2.15 When ORS seek to identify where a simple majority of residents go, the Leighton Linslade area is
split between the Luton TTWA area and the Milton Keynes TTWA. When commuting flows to
London are introduced, there are parts of the area for which London is the main location of
employment.
2.16 The report section on commuting draws these various levels of analysis together, and concludes
that the Leighton Linslade and Checkley Wood area falls within the Milton Keynes area - despite
none of the previous steps recognising this to conclusively be the case. The report does recognise
that there are some areas of overlap but “to avoid double counting” each area is placed in a single
HMA.
2.17 No real data or methodology is given as to how the analysis is drawn together it is therefore not
possible to analyses this step in any great detail.
Analysis of Migration Flows
2.18 The ORS report sets out migration patterns to and from the previously identified commuting zones.
It defines the strongest migration links to those key seeds on which the commuting zones have
been defined. This approach effectively places considerable weight on one level of analysis – of
2011 Commuting Patterns – which are identified in the PPG as a ‘contextual indicator.’
2.19 The analysis of migration patterns undertaken by ORS demonstrates that the Leighton Linslade and
Checkley Wood MSOAs have a stronger migratory links with Luton. Leighton Linslade and
Checkley Wood are defined within the Luton Migration Zone (Figure 32).
2.20 Analysis of self-containment indicates a relatively high level of self-containment rate in the Luton
Migration Zone. Planning Practice Guidance sets out a typical migration self-containment threshold
of 70% (when long distance moves are excluded), and emphasises the use of migration evidence
over commuting (which is a contextual indicator). Self-containment within the Luton Migration Zone,
including Leighton Linslade and Checkley Wood, as shown by ORS Figure 34, is 74% (measured
on the supply-side) and 73% (measured on the demand side) excluding long-distance moves of
over 50 miles. In both cases this exceeds the 70% migration threshold set out in the PPG. Self-
containment rises further is moves over 20 miles are excluded.

2.21 This particular analysis give strong support for the Leighton Linslade and Checkley Wood area as
falling within the Luton Housing Market area. Coupled with the commuting zone analysis which is
inconclusive, the ORS Report indicates that (at least in part) two of the three key factors in
identifying HMAs point towards Checkley Wood falling within a Luton-focused HMA.
Analysis of House Prices
2.22 The ORS analysis focuses on mix adjusted house prices and also ten year change in house prices
over an undefined ten year period, with further analysis of Broad Rental Market Area. A potential
criticism of the ORS approach would be their focus on average rather than median prices,
particularly given that the analysis is at MSOA level there is likely to be very few transactions. This
could therefore lead to a small number of very high or very low value transactions skewing the
average price used in the analysis.
2.23 On house prices, the ORS report concludes that “neither the geographic spread of areas with
higher and lower house prices nor the geographic spread of average house price changes would
appear to provide a clear basis on which to define housing market areas”.
2.24 The house price analysis could be interpreted a different way – Figure 36 which analyses house
prices suggests a broad similarity between prices between what they define as Luton, Milton
Keynes and Bedford HMAs. A market-based definition could well point to the three falling within a
common (larger) housing market area. The potential for this is not really considered within the
report.
2.25 Looking south, house prices increase into South West Hertfordshire – suggesting a market based
differential with this area; whilst prices into Northamptonshire start to fall, pointing to similar
conclusions.
2.26 This conclusion would be supported by some of ORS’ analysis. Their report considers house price
dynamics overlaid onto Broad Rental Market Area (BRMA) boundaries which are produced by the
VOA. Leighton Linslade falls within a Milton Keynes BRMA, but is close to the boundaries of this.
The ORS suggests that the “Bedford BRMA, Luton BRMA and Milton Keynes BRMA generally
cover areas with lower house prices, with some more expensive areas particularly in rural locations.”
It is clear that there are therefore similarities/ overlaps across the two defined HMAs of Luton and
Milton Keynes.

Summary
2.27 In summary the ORS report provides a definition of Housing Market Area boundaries based in
analysis of house price, migration and commuting patterns. The conclusion that ORS draw “are
based on majority agreement between these three geographies.” In reality, their conclusions are
heavily driven by the commuting analysis.
2.28 ORS conclusions set out that “Leighton Buzzard is in the Luton migration zone but in the Milton
Keynes commuting zone and Milton Keynes BRMA; so the area is allocated to the Milton Keynes
functional HMA”. As we would see it the BRMA is not based on rigorous analysis or the factors
which are identified in the PPG. The justification that the BRMA geographies start to draw out
distinctions in house prices and are therefore appropriate for defining HMA boundaries is weak and
could just as easily be applied to the Local Authority boundaries had they been overlaid.
2.29 The commuting analysis is essentially inconclusive – parts of the analysis (based on finer grain
interrogation of patterns) show Leighton Linslade as within a Luton-focused Commuting Zone (and
by inference HMA); whilst other methodologies show it relating more strongly to Milton Keynes.
Evidently commuting patterns are diverse – and at the very least it should be recognised as falling
within an area of overlap, with multiple influences.
2.30 The migration analysis – of which greater weight is placed in the PPG – shows Leighton Linslade a
falling within a Luton-focused HMA.
2.31 House price analysis does not support the conclusions one way or another – indeed it shows that a
market based definition would suggest a wider HMA which included both Milton Keynes and Luton.

3 REVIEW OF LOCAL DYNAMICS
3.1 In this section we move on to provide a finer grain consideration of local dynamics, particularly in
regard to commuting patterns, in the Leighton Linslade and Checkley Wood Areas.
3.2 As shown in Figure 2 below, the MSOA which the Checkley Wood site falls within is substantial and
extends eastward all the way to the M1 and to the edge of Luton/ Dunstable.

3.3 We have reviewed the commuting patterns of each of these areas. This draws on the same
dataset as that used in the ORS report – 2011 Census data. We have sought to review both in and
out commuting from these areas.
Commuting Dynamics of Leighton Linslade
3.4 As shown in Table 1 below, there are approximately 12,500 people working in the Leighton Linslade
area. The majority of Leighton Linslade workers come from the Central Bedfordshire area (65%). A
similar number also come from Luton, Aylesbury Vale and Milton Keynes (7-8% from each).

3.5 Although the employment centre of Leighton Buzzard was dismissed within the ORS analysis, it is
clear that it is an important employment location not just for local residents but also for people from
further afield.

3.6 In analysing the location of work for those living in Leighton Linslade, it is apparent that Milton
Keynes is a stronger employment destination than Luton – but both are significant, with 8% of the
residents in work commuting to Luton and 16% to Milton Keynes. However the flows to each are
smaller than numbers working locally or elsewhere in Central Bedfordshire (40%).

Central Bedfordshire 8,096 40.1%
Milton Keynes 3,285 16.3%

Rest 2,826 14.0%
Total 20,166 100.0%
Source: ONS, Census 2011
3.7 It is perhaps not surprising that almost 16% of Leighton Linslade employees are employed in Milton
Keynes compared to only 7.7% in Luton – this is simply a reflection of the relative size of these
employment centres. Comparatively Milton Keynes is a far larger employment centre. 75,500
people work in Luton compared to 122,500 in Milton Keynes.

3.8 Broadly 2.7% of Milton Keynes’ workforce is drawn from people living in Leighton Linslade; whilst
for Luton the figure is 2.1%. The figures are of a similar order of magnitude – suggesting a broadly
similar strength of relationship to each.
3.9 The commuting flows may reflect current rail and road access between Milton Keynes and Leighton
Linslade whereas Luton is only linked to Leighton Linslade by road which at present is heavily
congested at peak times through Dunstable.
3.10 However the proposed A5-M1 Link Road which consists of a new all-purpose dual two-lane
carriageway running east from the A5 (close to its junction with the A505 Leighton Buzzard Bypass)
to join the M1 at a new Junction 11A should significantly improve accessibility to Luton. This
development is intended to relieve Dunstable of this significant congestion and would shorten
journey times to Luton.
3.11 This new link road will also make Luton a more attractive location for employment and, as such, can
be expected to alter the commuting dynamics - strengthening the links between the two locations
and giving further justification for Leighton Linslade being included in the Luton HMA.
3.12 With additional housing development planned to the East of Leighton Linslade coupled with the new
road infrastructure the links with Luton are almost certainly be strengthened further still.
Commuting Dynamics of Checkley Wood (MSOA)
3.13 A distinctly different picture appears when we review the single MSOA which Checkley Wood falls
within (Central Bedfordshire 019). The MSOA also takes in the villages of Eggington, Stanbridge,
Hockington and Chalton. Clearly this spans a wide area which abuts both Luton and Leighton
Linslade.
3.14 While the overall numbers are obviously smaller (reflecting the population base), the links to Luton
are clearly stronger than those with Milton Keynes. In terms of the local workforce, almost twice as
many people commute in from Luton than from Milton Keynes, although Central Bedfordshire is still
the main location of residence.

Central Bedfordshire 1355 57%

3.15 Although not as stark a difference, the location of work for Checkley Wood residents also shows a
higher percentage commuting to Luton than Milton Keynes. Again Central Bedfordshire is still the
main location of employment for residents of this area. Overall and in proportion to the number of
jobs in the two main employment centres, there is a stronger relationship with Luton. Improvements
to the local road network is also likely to increase commuting to Luton.
Table 4: Workplace Location of Checkley Wood Residents
Location of Workplace Residents %
Central Bedfordshire 1376 37.9%
Luton 645 17.8%
Milton Keynes 458 12.6%
Dacorum 149 4.1%
Aylesbury Vale 135 3.7%
Bedford 101 2.8%
Rest 769 21.2%
Total 3633 100.0%
Source: ONS, Census 2011 T
3.16 In summary, the localised dynamics suggest that the Checkley Wood area is far more closely linked
to Luton than it is to Milton Keynes. This is also likely to be strengthened through improvements to
the Strategic Road Network.
3.17 Coupled with the questions we have raised in relation to commuting and house price analysis
undertaken by ORS, there is clear justification for considering that at the very least the Leighton
Linslade area is in an area of overlap between the Luton and Milton Keynes HMA. The strength of
relationship between the Checkley Wood and Luton, suggests that this area clearly falls within the
Luton HMA. For Leighton Linslade, it is clear that there is a strong functional link – in regard to
commuting and migration – with Luton, and this can be expected to be strengthened and grow with
delivery of the A5-M1 Link Road.
