Allocated and promoted land wanted in Yeovil
If you own allocated and promoted land in or around Yeovil, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.
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.

Allocated and promoted land we are looking for in Yeovil
We are interested in land around Yeovil at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. Yeovil lies about 21 miles east of Taunton in Somerset. We also cover Dorchester, Bridgwater, Taunton and the villages between them.
- Land allocated for housing in an adopted plan
- Sites submitted to a call for sites (England) or candidate site register (Wales)
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
Nutrient neutrality advice linked to the Somerset Levels and Moors protected sites has affected housing across much of the county. The M5 corridor through Bridgwater and Taunton, and growth linked to Hinkley Point C, have increased demand for land near those towns.
Checks we make on allocated and promoted land in Yeovil
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.
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.
Some land in Somerset is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 115 miles from Yeovil, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Allocated and promoted land in Yeovil: common questions
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.
Do you buy part of an allocation?
Yes. Where an allocation is split between owners, we can buy or take an option on one part and work with the others.
Is Yeovil too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 115 miles from Yeovil, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Yeovil assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
