Is your land near Leominster a good fit?

  • Fields surrounded by gardens or other land
  • Land with access only over a farm track or private road
  • Backland behind houses with no frontage
  • Land next to a site with planning potential

We look at the title plans for your land and its neighbours to find the realistic ways in, then price the land on that basis.

How we arrive at a figure for land in Herefordshire

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.

Prescriptive rights

Long use can sometimes create rights, which need legal advice.

Amenity use

Without access, value may be limited to grazing or adjoining owners.

Ways to sell this land

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.

How a sale works

  1. Tell us about your land

    Send the postcode or address and a rough size.

  2. We check it properly

    Title, planning history, access, flood maps and local policy.

  3. You get a written offer

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

Planning and legal points for land in Herefordshire

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.

Land registration

Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

Common problems, and how we handle them

The only route is over a neighbour's land

We can approach the neighbour about a joint scheme or an access agreement.

The deeds mention a right of way but it's unclear

Your solicitor will check the wording. Old rights may not cover new homes, and that affects value.

Useful to send us

  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Photos of the land and its access
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Your questions answered

What is a ransom strip?

A strip of land, sometimes very narrow, that sits between a development site and the road. Whoever owns it can control access and may claim a share of the development value.

Does a right of way allow access for new homes?

Not always. A right of way granted for agricultural use may not cover residential traffic. Your solicitor will check.

Can long use of a track create a right?

Sometimes. Rights can arise through long use in certain circumstances, but it needs legal advice.
