What allocated and promoted land we want near Adwick le Street
We are interested in land around Adwick le Street at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. In South Yorkshire, Adwick le Street sits about 17 miles north-east of Sheffield; Bentley and Doncaster are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- 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
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
South Yorkshire centres on Sheffield, Rotherham, Doncaster and Barnsley, with former mining towns such as Wath-upon-Dearne, Mexborough, Maltby and Thorne. Green Belt covers much of the open land between these towns, and the Peak District National Park extends into the west of Sheffield. Former colliery, steel and industrial land, town-centre sites and edge-of-settlement fields are typical sources of housing land, with grey belt now relevant on parts of the urban fringe.
Checks we make on allocated and promoted land in Adwick le Street
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.
National policy in England now recognises "medium development" of 10 to 49 homes on sites up to 2.5 hectares, and asks councils to allocate at least 10% of their housing on sites of one hectare or less and a further 10% on sites of one to 2.5 hectares.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 77 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across 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.
Do you buy allocated and promoted land in Adwick le Street?
Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in Adwick le Street and throughout South Yorkshire, 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 Adwick le Street 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.
