Allocated and promoted land wanted in Guiseley
Development Land Wanted buys allocated and promoted land in Guiseley and right across England and Wales. Owners and agents are both welcome.
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.

Is your land in Guiseley the kind we want?
We are interested in land around Guiseley at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. Guiseley is in West Yorkshire, about 9 miles north-west of Leeds. Nearby places include Yeadon, Baildon and Horsforth.
- Land allocated for housing in an adopted plan
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
The South Pennine moors and part of the Peak District National Park border the west, with protected moorland habitats that can require mitigation for nearby schemes. Steep valley sites around Halifax and Huddersfield, and flood risk from the Aire and Calder, are common considerations.

Allocated and promoted land in Guiseley: 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.
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.
Is Guiseley too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 92 miles from Guiseley, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Guiseley assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
