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.
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.

Do you buy land in Somerset?
Yes. We buy land across Somerset, including around Bath, Weston-super-Mare and Taunton. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects.
Which planning rules apply to land in Somerset?
Land in England is assessed against the National Planning Policy Framework and the council's local plan.
Do you buy land on the Somerset border?
Yes. We also cover Bristol, Wiltshire and South Glamorgan, so land close to the county boundary is fine.
Where do you buy land?
Across England and Wales. Planning rules differ between the two, and we take that into account in every appraisal.
