How we arrive at a figure for land in Nottinghamshire

Position

A paddock next to houses has far more potential than one in open countryside.

Access width

Access needs to be wide enough for a road if homes are to be built.

Change of use history

Equestrian use may already have needed planning permission; we check the record.

Neighbours' views

Overlooking and outlook affect what layout a council will accept.

From first call to completion

  1. Send us the address

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

  2. We do the homework

    We read the title and planning record and check flood risk and access.

  3. We put an offer in writing

    It shows how we got there. There's no obligation to accept.

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

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

Rules that apply in England

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.

Farm tenancies

Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies have their own notice and compensation rules, which affect when land can be developed.

Land registration

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

Awkward details we deal with

The only access is a narrow track

We measure what's there and see if it can be widened or combined with neighbouring land.

You still keep horses on part of it

We can look at buying part of the land and leaving you the rest, with access protected.

Useful to send us

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Photos of the land and its access

Common questions

Will you buy the stables too?

Yes. We buy the whole site as it stands, including buildings and fencing, unless you'd like to keep something.

What if the paddock is landlocked?

Landlocked paddocks are worth less, but can still be valuable to an adjoining owner or as part of a wider scheme.

How long does a paddock sale take?

If the title is registered and there are no disputes, the legal work is usually the main timescale.

Do you cover the villages around Sutton-in-Ashfield?

Yes. Villages between Sutton-in-Ashfield, Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Mansfield often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
