- Gaps in a continuous street frontage

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

What people ask us about infill plots
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.
How wide does an infill plot need to be?
There's no fixed width. It depends on the house type, the street and whether parking is needed at the front.
Do I pay anything for your appraisal?
No. Our appraisal and offer are free and there's no obligation.
Do you cover the villages around Telford?
Yes. Villages between Telford, Wellington and Bridgnorth often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
