Allocated and promoted land wanted in North Walsham
We are actively looking for allocated and promoted land in North Walsham and the surrounding area, with or without planning permission.
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 North Walsham
If your land near North Walsham appears in the council's plan or its site assessments, send us the reference; it changes the conversation. North Walsham lies about 14 miles north of Norwich in Norfolk. We also cover Norwich, Great Yarmouth, East Dereham 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
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
The A11 corridor from Thetford towards Norwich and the A47 east-west route carry much planned growth, with larger sites around Norwich. Rural villages see small schemes of farm buildings, paddocks and infill plots, while flood risk in the Fens near King's Lynn and on the coast shapes what is possible.
What decides whether a site in North Walsham works
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.
Shared allocations
Where several owners hold one allocation, collaboration and equalisation matter.
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.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 139 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Norfolk
Is there an equivalent of a call for sites in Wales?
Yes. Welsh councils run candidate site stages when preparing or reviewing their Local Development Plans.
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 North Walsham?
Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in North Walsham and throughout Norfolk, 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 North Walsham 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.
