Allocated and promoted land wanted in Louth
We want to hear from owners of allocated and promoted land in Louth. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
Land that has been allocated or put forward to the council is often the most advanced land a private owner holds. We look at the allocation policy, the evidence the council expects and the route to an application.

Is your land in Louth the kind we want?
We are interested in land around Louth at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. Louth lies about 24 miles north-east of Lincoln in Lincolnshire. We also cover Cleethorpes, Grimsby, Skegness and the villages between them.
- 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
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
Flood zones and the sequential test often decide what is possible in the Fens and along the coast, so sites on higher ground or within existing towns are favoured. The A1 corridor at Grantham and Stamford, the Lincoln area and the Humber ports see the most interest in larger housing land.
What usually makes or breaks it
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.
Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.
Lincolnshire has no designated Green Belt, so the main policy questions near Louth are usually the settlement boundary, landscape and access.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 97 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Allocated and promoted land in Louth: 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.
Do you buy allocated and promoted land in Louth?
Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in Louth and throughout Lincolnshire, 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 Louth 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.
