Allocated and promoted land wanted in Brough
We are actively looking for allocated and promoted land in Brough and the surrounding area, with or without planning permission.
If your land is allocated in a plan, or you have submitted it to a call for sites, the council has already started considering it for development. We can buy allocated land or take it forward through promotion and an application.

Is your land in Brough the kind we want?
If your land near Brough appears in the council's plan or its site assessments, send us the reference; it changes the conversation. Brough lies about 10 miles south-west of Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire. We also cover Kingston upon Hull, Beverley, Scunthorpe and the villages between them.
- Land identified in a draft plan or housing land availability assessment
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
The East Riding of Yorkshire, as used here, includes Kingston upon Hull as well as Beverley, Bridlington, Goole, Driffield and many villages across the Wolds and Holderness. There is no Green Belt, and land around the Humber estuary and in Holderness is often in high flood risk zones, which strongly influences where housing can go. Sites typically include edge-of-town and village land, farm buildings and former commercial or port-related land in Hull.
Checks we make on allocated and promoted land in Brough
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.
National policy in England now recognises "medium development" of 10 to 49 homes on sites up to 2.5 hectares, and asks councils to allocate at least 10% of their housing on sites of one hectare or less and a further 10% on sites of one to 2.5 hectares.
The East Riding of Yorkshire has no designated Green Belt, so the main policy questions near Brough are usually the settlement boundary, landscape and access.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 99 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Allocated and promoted land in Brough: common questions
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.
Do you buy part of an allocation?
Yes. Where an allocation is split between owners, we can buy or take an option on one part and work with the others.
Do you buy allocated and promoted land in Brough?
Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in Brough and throughout the East Riding of Yorkshire, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
How quickly can you look at a site in Brough?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
