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.
Green belt and grey belt
Green belt land is protected from inappropriate development. National policy in England also recognises 'grey belt': green belt land that doesn't strongly contribute to key green belt purposes, where housing can be acceptable if further tests are met.
Common problems, and how we handle them
You've been told green belt land can never be built on
That isn't quite right. Policy allows certain development and plans can release land. It is hard, though, and we won't pretend otherwise.
Agents have suggested very high values
A price that assumes permission is only real if permission is realistic. We show you how our figure is built.
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
Your questions answered
What is grey belt land?
In England, national planning policy introduced 'grey belt' in December 2024 and kept it in the revised framework of August 2026. It means green belt land, including previously developed land, that doesn't strongly contribute to checking the sprawl of large built-up areas, stopping towns merging or preserving the setting of historic towns. Housing on grey belt land can be acceptable if further tests are met.
Will you buy green belt land with no planning prospect?
Possibly, at a price based on its current use. We'll be clear about that rather than implying development value that isn't there.
Is my land green belt?
Your council's local plan policies map shows green belt boundaries. Send us the address or a plan and we'll check.
Do you cover the villages around Bromsgrove?
Yes. Villages between Bromsgrove, Redditch and Droitwich often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
