Development land wanted in Bexley
Development Land Wanted buys land of every size in Bexley and the villages nearby.
Bexley lies about 13 miles east of central London in Greater London. We also cover Sidcup, Dartford, Erith and the villages between them. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 116 miles from Bexley, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
London planning is shaped by both the London Plan and borough plans, with higher densities expected near stations and town centres. Small sites, including garden land, yards and redundant commercial premises close to Underground, Overground, Elizabeth line or national rail stations, are the most common route to new homes in the outer areas.
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.
Parts of Greater London are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.
