Is your land in Kingston upon Hull the kind we want?
If your land near Kingston upon Hull appears in the council's plan or its site assessments, send us the reference; it changes the conversation. Kingston upon Hull lies about 8 miles south-east of Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire. We also cover Hedon, Beverley, Brough 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)
- Land identified in a draft plan or housing land availability assessment
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
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.
Before we make an offer in Kingston upon Hull
Plan stage
An adopted allocation carries more weight than a draft one or a call-for-sites submission.
Allocation requirements
Allocation policies often set numbers, access, infrastructure and design expectations.
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.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 105 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Questions owners in Kingston upon Hull ask
Is there an equivalent of a call for sites in Wales?
Yes. Welsh councils run candidate site stages when preparing or reviewing their Local Development Plans.
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.
Which planning rules apply to land in Kingston upon Hull?
As Kingston upon Hull is in England, national policy comes from the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Kingston upon Hull assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
