Allocated and promoted land wanted in Bargoed
If you own allocated and promoted land in or around Bargoed, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.
Allocated land is identified for development in an adopted Local Development Plan (England) or Local Development Plan (Wales). Promoted land has been put forward through a candidate site process or candidate site process. Both are strong signals of potential, and we buy or take options on such land.

The allocated and promoted land that interests us around Bargoed
Around Bargoed, 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. Bargoed is in Gwent, about 9 miles west of Cwmbran. Nearby places include Blackwood, Gelligaer and Nelson.
- Land allocated for housing in an adopted plan
- Sites submitted to a candidate site process (England) or candidate site register (Wales)
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
Newport's adopted Local Development Plan designates a green belt between Newport and Cardiff, and Future Wales anticipates a wider green belt for south-east Wales once a regional plan sets its boundary. Newport and Cwmbran see the strongest demand, while Bannau Brycheiniog National Park and the Wye Valley National Landscape cover northern and eastern parts of the area.

Frequently asked in Gwent
My land is in a candidate site process. 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.

Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in Bargoed and throughout Gwent, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Bargoed too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 82 miles from Bargoed, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
