What allocated and promoted land we want near Caerphilly
We are interested in land around Caerphilly at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. Caerphilly lies about 10 miles south-west of Cwmbran in Gwent. We also cover Bedwas, Risca, Pontypridd and the villages between them.
- 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
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
Gwent covers south-east Wales, from Newport, Cwmbran and Pontypool to the valley towns of Ebbw Vale, Tredegar, Blackwood and Caerphilly and the market towns of Abergavenny, Chepstow and Monmouth. Typical sites include former industrial and colliery land, edge-of-town fields and village infill, with green wedges protecting gaps between settlements. Phosphate limits in the Usk and Wye catchments have held back housing in parts of the area, and the Gwent Levels bring flood and habitat constraints.
Before we make an offer in Caerphilly
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.
Parts of Wales lie in river catchments where phosphate levels in protected rivers affect new housing, so drainage and nutrient solutions can be an early question.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 87 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Allocated and promoted land in Caerphilly: common questions
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.
Is there an equivalent of a candidate site process in Wales?
Yes. Welsh councils run candidate site stages when preparing or reviewing their Local Development Plans.
Do you buy allocated and promoted land in Caerphilly?
Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in Caerphilly 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.
Can an agent introduce land in Caerphilly 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.
