Brownfield land wanted in Kingston upon Hull
We want to hear from owners of brownfield land in Kingston upon Hull. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
If your land has buildings, hardstanding or a past industrial use, it is likely to count as brownfield. Reusing these sites is a planning priority, and we are buyers for yards, depots and cleared plots across England and Wales.

The East Riding of Yorkshire, as used here, includes Kingston upon Hull as well as Beverley, Bridlington, Goole, Driffield and many villages across the Wolds and Holderness. There is no Green Belt, and land around the Humber estuary and in Holderness is often in high flood risk zones, which strongly influences where housing can go. Sites typically include edge-of-town and village land, farm buildings and former commercial or port-related land in Hull.
Checks we make on brownfield land in Kingston upon Hull
Demolition and ground
Old foundations, tanks and services add cost, so we allow for them in our appraisal.
Neighbouring uses
Noise or smells from neighbouring businesses can affect whether homes are acceptable.
Employment land policy
Some councils protect employment land; we check whether a change to housing would be resisted.
The August 2026 NPPF supports homes within reasonable walking distance (around 800 metres) of well-connected railway stations, with minimum densities of 35 homes per hectare, or 45 near higher-frequency stations.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 105 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Frequently asked in the East Riding of Yorkshire
Do I have to clear the site first?
No. We can buy with buildings and hardstanding in place and deal with demolition ourselves.

It can be managed. Tell us about the lease terms and any break dates and we will factor them into the timing.
Is Kingston upon Hull too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 105 miles from Kingston upon Hull, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Can an agent introduce land in Kingston upon Hull 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.
