Allocated and promoted land wanted in Aberkenfig
We are actively looking for allocated and promoted land in Aberkenfig and the surrounding area, with or without planning permission.
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 Aberkenfig
We are interested in land around Aberkenfig at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. Sitting about 2 miles north of Bridgend, Aberkenfig is within Mid Glamorgan, with Bridgend and Pencoed close by.
- 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
The South Wales Metro and upgraded valley rail lines are a focus for growth, with stations at Pontypridd, Aberdare, Treorchy and Merthyr Tydfil. Lower-lying land around Bridgend, Pencoed and Llantrisant along the M4 corridor sees more demand for larger housing sites, and flood risk under TAN 15 matters on the valley floors.
Before we make an offer in Aberkenfig
Plan stage
An adopted allocation carries more weight than a draft one or a call-for-sites submission.
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.
In Wales, planning decisions are guided by Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040, with land for housing identified through each council's Local Development Plan, including candidate site stages when plans are reviewed.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 100 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Allocated and promoted land in Aberkenfig: common questions
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 part of an allocation?
Yes. Where an allocation is split between owners, we can buy or take an option on one part and work with the others.
Can an agent introduce land in Aberkenfig 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.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Aberkenfig assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
