How we arrive at a figure for land in Merseyside
Agricultural value
Soil quality, size and access set the farming value that underpins any offer.
Rights and schemes
Environmental scheme agreements, wayleaves and rights of way need checking before sale.
Severance
Selling a field can affect access to, or the value of, the land you keep.
Overage
You may be able to keep a share of any future uplift through an overage clause.
Choosing how to sell
Outright purchase
A clean sale at farmland value plus any hope value we can justify.
Subject-to-planning sale
Higher price paid when permission is granted on the field.
Option agreements
Common for edge-of-town farmland promoted through the local plan.
Joint ventures

Rules that apply in England
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.
Farm tenancies
Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies have their own notice and compensation rules, which affect when land can be developed.
Land registration
Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.
Common problems, and how we handle them
You're in an environmental scheme
Some agreements need to be transferred or ended. We check the terms with you.
Selling one field affects the rest of the farm
Rights of access and services can be reserved so the rest of the holding is protected.
Useful to send us
- The address or postcode
- Any planning applications or letters
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
What people ask us about agricultural land
Can I sell just one field?
Yes. Selling part of a holding is common. Your solicitor will make sure access, drainage and services for the remaining land are protected.
What about the tenant?
Tenanted land can be sold, but the tenant's rights continue. Ending a tenancy follows statutory rules, so we assess this at the start.
How quickly can you buy farmland?
With clear title and vacant possession, a straightforward sale can move at the pace of the legal work. Tenancies and unregistered titles take longer.
Can you visit land near Wallasey?
Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
