What England's rules mean for your land

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.

Heritage

Listed buildings and conservation areas are managed with Historic England and the council's conservation team.

Common problems, and how we handle them

Part of the gap belongs to a neighbour

Combining land can make a better plot. We can approach the neighbour with you.

There's an old right of way across it

We check the deeds and the public rights of way map before pricing.

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

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 Camborne?

Yes. Villages between Camborne, Redruth and Helston often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
