What allocated and promoted land we want near Hirwaun
Around Hirwaun, 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, Hirwaun sits about 16 miles north of Bridgend; Aberdare and Treorchy are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Sites submitted to a candidate site process (England) or candidate site register (Wales)
- Land identified in a draft plan or housing land availability assessment
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- 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 Hirwaun
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.
Parts of Wales lie in river catchments where phosphate levels in protected rivers affect new housing, so drainage and nutrient solutions can be an early question.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 88 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Hirwaun assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
