What England's rules mean for your land
Planning framework
Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.
Green belt and grey belt
Green belt land is protected from inappropriate development. National policy in England also recognises 'grey belt': green belt land that doesn't strongly contribute to key green belt purposes, where housing can be acceptable if further tests are met.
Tax on the sale
The buyer pays Stamp Duty Land Tax. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax, and some commercial land carries VAT. Take advice from an accountant.

Selling land in Bristol: questions
Do you buy land in Bristol?
Yes. We buy land across Bristol, including around Bristol and Bishopsworth. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects.
Which planning rules apply to land in Bristol?
Land in England is assessed against the National Planning Policy Framework and the council's local plan.
Do you buy land on the Bristol border?
Yes. We also cover Somerset, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire, so land close to the county boundary is fine.
How fast can I sell my land?
It depends on the land and the deal. A straightforward outright sale of registered land with no tenants can move as fast as the two solicitors can complete the legal work. Unregistered titles, tenancies, access questions and planning conditions all add time. We won't promise a completion date until we've seen the title.
