Is your land in Gerrards Cross the kind we want?
Around Gerrards Cross, allocated sites and land put forward to the council are usually the furthest along, so they can often move faster than land at an earlier stage. Gerrards Cross lies about 19 miles south-east of Aylesbury in Buckinghamshire. We also cover Chalfont Saint Peter, Uxbridge, Rickmansworth and the villages between them.
- Land allocated for housing in an adopted plan
- Sites submitted to a call for sites (England) or candidate site register (Wales)
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
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.
What decides whether a site in Gerrards Cross works
Plan stage
An adopted allocation carries more weight than a draft one or a call-for-sites submission.
Existing agreements
Land may already be under option or promotion; we check for exclusivity.
Evidence base
Councils expect technical evidence on deliverability.
The Planning and Infrastructure Act 2025 introduced Environmental Delivery Plans and a Nature Restoration Levy in England, which over time may offer an alternative to site-by-site mitigation for some environmental issues.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 88 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Your questions answered
My land is in a call for sites. Does that mean it will be allocated?
No. A submission only means the council will assess it. Good technical evidence and a clear access plan improve the chances.
My land was under an option that expired. Can you take over?
Yes, if the earlier agreement has properly ended. We will want to see it to confirm there is no continuing exclusivity.
Is Gerrards Cross too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 88 miles from Gerrards Cross, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Can an agent introduce land in Gerrards Cross to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
