How we arrive at a figure for land in the East Riding of Yorkshire
Existing rights
Rights of way in the deeds may already allow some use, though not necessarily for new homes.
Neighbouring land
A joint scheme with neighbours can unlock value for everyone.
Ransom value
Strips controlling access to development land can command a share of its value.
Prescriptive rights
Long use can sometimes create rights, which need legal advice.
Choosing how to sell
Outright purchase
At a price that reflects the access risk we take on.
Subject-to-planning sale
We complete once access and permission are secured.
Option agreements
Useful while access is negotiated with neighbours.
Joint ventures
Often the best way to combine landlocked land with the land that gives access.

Planning and legal points for land in the East Riding of Yorkshire
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.

Questions from landowners near Hedon
How is a ransom strip valued?
There's no fixed rule. Valuations often refer to a share of the uplift in value the access unlocks. Take advice from a surveyor.
Can long use of a track create a right?
Sometimes. Rights can arise through long use in certain circumstances, but it needs legal advice.
Will you buy land that may never get access?
Possibly, at a price reflecting that risk. We'll tell you honestly.
Do you cover the villages around Hedon?
Yes. Villages between Hedon, Kingston upon Hull and Beverley often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
