I.e a map of exactly which properties are council housing / housing association owned homes.

Does anyone know if this data is available from Land Registry or similar?

I can't imagine there would be, partly because ownership changes so often.

In Bristol, I have 5 rentals all in the same area which is a former council estate. Much of the housing stock has had the right to buy exercised - the privately owned ones mostly have nicely trimmed hedges and a (fairly) presentable front garden; whereas the councilistas can be identified by the brand new roofs and an array of benefit-scum garden ornaments such as shopping trolleys/scrap cars/mattresses/etc

The default JLR product parked on the grass and mud via ocean finance, is also a pointer.

Drive around, any house with bikes/toys/signs from B&M in the front garden, guaranteed social housing
