What allocated and promoted land we want near Morley

We are interested in land around Morley at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. Morley lies about 4 miles south-west of Leeds in West Yorkshire. We also cover Batley, Dewsbury, Heckmondwike 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
  • Parts of larger allocations owned separately

West Yorkshire centres on Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield and Halifax, with many mill and mining towns such as Dewsbury, Batley, Keighley, Castleford and Pontefract. Green Belt covers much of the open land between these towns, so former mill, industrial and colliery land and town-centre sites are major sources of housing land. Grey belt and smaller fringe sites on the urban edge can also come forward.

Before we make an offer in Morley

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.

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.

Some land in West Yorkshire 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.

Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 83 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Frequently asked in West Yorkshire

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 Morley too far from our Birmingham base?

No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 83 miles from Morley, and we look at land right across England and Wales.

Which planning rules apply to land in Morley?

As Morley 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.
