Allocated and promoted land wanted in Maghull
Looking to sell allocated and promoted land near Maghull? We assess every site on its merits and explain the options in plain English.
Allocated land is identified for development in an adopted local plan (England) or Local Development Plan (Wales). Promoted land has been put forward through a call for sites 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 Maghull
Around Maghull, 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. In Merseyside, Maghull sits about 7 miles north of Liverpool; Kirkby and Ormskirk are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- 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
Merseyside centres on Liverpool, with Birkenhead and Wallasey across the Mersey, Southport and Formby on the coast, and towns such as St Helens, Bootle, Huyton and Kirkby. Green Belt separates many of these places and covers much of the remaining open land, so most housing comes from previously developed land, docks, former industrial estates and town-centre sites. Grey belt and small fringe sites can also come forward.
Checks we make on allocated and promoted land in Maghull
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.
Existing agreements
Land may already be under option or promotion; we check for exclusivity.
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.
Some land in Merseyside 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.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 79 miles from Maghull, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Yes, if the earlier agreement has properly ended. We will want to see it to confirm there is no continuing exclusivity.
