Common questions
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 cover the villages around Chesham?
Yes. Villages between Chesham, Amersham on the Hill and Amersham often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
