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.
Brownfield first
National policy gives substantial weight to reusing suitable brownfield land for homes. Councils keep brownfield land registers, and some sites can gain permission in principle.
Flood risk
Environment Agency flood maps and the sequential test steer new homes away from areas at highest risk of flooding.

Selling land in Cheshire: questions
Do you buy land in Cheshire?
Yes. We buy land across Cheshire, including around Warrington, Chester and Crewe. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects.
Which planning rules apply to land in Cheshire?
Land in England is assessed against the National Planning Policy Framework and the council's local plan.
Do you buy land on the Cheshire border?
Yes. We also cover Greater Manchester, Merseyside and Lancashire, so land close to the county boundary is fine.
Can I sell just part of my land?
Yes. Selling one field, the end of a garden or part of a yard is common. Your solicitor will make sure the land you keep has the access and services it needs.
