Questions from landowners in Bristol
What is an infill plot?
A small gap in an otherwise built-up frontage, usually between two existing buildings, that a new home could fill.
Is infill easier to get permission for?
Often, because it continues the existing street pattern. Policy varies by council, especially in villages.
Can you check the conservation area rules for me?
Yes. We look at the council's conservation area appraisal as part of our assessment.
Do you buy land in Bristol?
Yes. We consider land across Bristol, from Bristol to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
