Rules that apply in England
Biodiversity net gain
Under the Environment Act 2021, most developments in England must deliver at least a 10% gain in biodiversity. Since 6 August 2026, sites of 0.2 hectares or less are exempt unless priority habitat is affected.
Flood risk
Environment Agency flood maps and the sequential test steer new homes away from areas at highest risk of flooding.
Land registration
Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

What people ask us about land
Do you buy land in Stroud?
Yes. We consider land in and around Stroud and across Gloucestershire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
Do you cover the villages around Stroud?
Yes. Villages between Stroud, Dursley and Gloucester often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
Where do you buy land?
Across England and Wales. Planning rules differ between the two, and we take that into account in every appraisal.
Can I sell landlocked land?
Yes, though usually at a lower price unless access can be secured. Neighbours are often the most natural buyers.
