Kent ranges from the Medway towns, Dartford and Gravesend on the Thames to Maidstone, Ashford, Canterbury, Tunbridge Wells and the coastal towns of Margate, Ramsgate, Folkestone and Dover. West Kent is largely Metropolitan Green Belt, while the Kent Downs and High Weald National Landscapes cover much of the countryside. Sites typically include edge-of-town fields, orchards and farmland, farm buildings, infill plots and brownfield land in the towns.
Before we make an offer in Gravesend
Allocation requirements
Allocation policies often set numbers, access, infrastructure and design expectations.
Existing agreements
Land may already be under option or promotion; we check for exclusivity.
Shared allocations
Where several owners hold one allocation, collaboration and equalisation matter.
The August 2026 NPPF supports homes within reasonable walking distance (around 800 metres) of well-connected railway stations, with minimum densities of 35 homes per hectare, or 45 near higher-frequency stations.
Some land in Kent is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 123 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Allocated and promoted land in Gravesend: 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.
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.
Can an agent introduce land in Gravesend 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.
Which planning rules apply to land in Gravesend?
As Gravesend 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.
