Land we're keen to see around Milford Haven
- Former workshops, depots and yards
- Redundant commercial buildings in residential areas
- Sites next to canals, railways or town centres
- Sites where previous schemes stalled
Brownfield sites often carry baggage: contamination, old foundations, tricky neighbours. They're also some of the best places for new homes, and policy generally supports their reuse.
The things that move our offer
Contamination
Investigation and remediation costs come straight off the land value.
Demolition
Removing buildings and old foundations is a significant cost on many sites.
Flood risk
Many brownfield sites are near rivers and canals, so flood risk is checked early.
Viability
Councils may accept lower obligations where clean-up costs are high.
Ways to sell this land
Outright purchase
We take on the site and its problems for an agreed price.
Subject-to-planning sale
We complete once permission is granted for a housing scheme.
Option agreements
Can suit larger brownfield sites with a longer planning route.
Joint ventures
Worth discussing if you want to share in the regeneration value.

Planning and legal points for land in Dyfed
Planning framework
Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.
Section 106 and CIL
Section 106 agreements apply in Wales, and a small number of Welsh councils charge the Community Infrastructure Levy.
Flood risk
Natural Resources Wales flood maps and Technical Advice Note 15 guide where new homes can go. Phosphate limits in some river catchments have also affected new housing.
Common problems, and how we handle them
The buildings are being vandalised
A quick exchange can transfer risk and security responsibility sooner. We'll talk through timing.
A previous buyer pulled out after surveys
We'd like to see any reports. Problems can often be priced rather than walked away from.
Useful to send us
- The address or postcode
- A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
- Your title number, if you know it
- Photos of the land and its access
Your questions answered
Is it easier to get planning on brownfield land?
National policy in England and Wales gives weight to reusing suitable brownfield land, so the starting point is often positive. Each site is still judged on its merits.
Will you buy a site with tenants?
Yes. We look at the leases and how and when vacant possession can be achieved.
Do I need a contamination report before selling?
No, though any reports you have will help us price more accurately.
Do you cover the villages around Milford Haven?
Yes. Villages between Milford Haven, Pembroke Dock and Haverfordwest often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
