Allocated and promoted land wanted in Kidderminster
Development Land Wanted buys allocated and promoted land in Kidderminster 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.

The allocated and promoted land that interests us around Kidderminster
Around Kidderminster, allocated sites and land put forward to the council are usually the furthest along, so they can often move faster than land at an earlier stage. Sitting about 14 miles north of Worcester, Kidderminster is within Worcestershire, with Stourport-on-Severn and Stourbridge close by.
- 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
Flood risk from the Severn, Teme and Avon is a major consideration around Worcester, Upton-upon-Severn and Evesham. The M5 and M42 corridors and the rail lines through Worcester, Bromsgrove and Droitwich attract interest, and grey belt is now relevant on parts of the northern Green Belt.
What usually makes or breaks it
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.
Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 18 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.
Can an agent introduce land in Kidderminster 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.
How quickly can you look at a site in Kidderminster?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
