Nottinghamshire covers the city of Nottingham and suburbs such as Arnold, West Bridgford and Hucknall, the former mining towns of Mansfield, Sutton-in-Ashfield and Kirkby-in-Ashfield, and Worksop, Retford and Newark-on-Trent. Green Belt surrounds the Nottingham conurbation, while the north of the county, around Worksop and Retford, has none. Typical sites include former colliery and industrial land, edge-of-town fields, farm buildings and infill plots in villages.
Before we make an offer in Newark-on-Trent
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.
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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 58 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Your questions answered
My land is in a call for sites. Does that mean it will be allocated?
No. A submission only means the council will assess it. Good technical evidence and a clear access plan improve the chances.
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.
Which planning rules apply to land in Newark-on-Trent?
As Newark-on-Trent is in England, national policy comes from the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Newark-on-Trent assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
