The allocated and promoted land that interests us around Ferndale
Around Ferndale, 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 Mid Glamorgan, Ferndale sits about 12 miles north-east of Bridgend; Treorchy and Tonypandy are its nearest neighbours on our list.

- Land identified in a draft plan or housing land availability assessment
- 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.
What usually makes or breaks it
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.
Evidence base
Councils expect technical evidence on deliverability.
Flood risk in Wales is assessed under Technical Advice Note 15 and the Flood Map for Planning, which can be decisive for land near rivers and the coast.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 90 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.
