Wanted in Newport Pagnell

Development land wanted in Newport Pagnell

Development Land Wanted buys land of every size in Newport Pagnell and the villages nearby.

Sitting about 19 miles north of Aylesbury, Newport Pagnell is within Buckinghamshire, with Milton Keynes and Bletchley close by. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 59 miles from Newport Pagnell, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Buckinghamshire runs from Milton Keynes in the north, through Aylesbury and the Vale, to High Wycombe, Amersham and the Chiltern towns in the south. The southern half is largely Metropolitan Green Belt and much of it lies in the Chilterns National Landscape, so sites there tend to be small, infill or previously developed. The north and the Aylesbury area see more edge-of-town greenfield land, farmland and strategic sites promoted through plan-making.

Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.

Some land in Buckinghamshire is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.
