Checks we make on allocated and promoted land in Sutton-in-Ashfield
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.
Evidence base
Councils expect technical evidence on deliverability.
In England, the revised National Planning Policy Framework published on 17 August 2026 replaced the old "tilted balance" with new settlement policies: development within a settlement should normally be approved unless the harm substantially outweighs the benefits, while land outside a settlement can gain support in defined circumstances.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 48 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.
