Commercial and industrial sites wanted in Tewkesbury
We want to hear from owners of commercial and industrial sites in Tewkesbury. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
If you own industrial units, a business yard or commercial land that is surrounded by housing or underused, it may be worth more as a residential site. We look at employment land policy, tenancies and ground conditions before making an offer.

What commercial and industrial sites we want near Tewkesbury
In Tewkesbury, industrial land that has drifted out of use can often be reimagined as homes, subject to the council's view on employment land. Tewkesbury lies about 9 miles north of Gloucester in Gloucestershire. We also cover Cheltenham, Gloucester, Great Malvern and the villages between them.
- Commercial land that is vacant or underused
- Builders' yards, depots and storage land
- Garage, workshop and showroom sites
- Land where employment use has been marketed without success
Gloucestershire, as used here, includes the Bristol fringe towns of Kingswood and Yate as well as Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud, Tewkesbury and Cirencester. Green Belt lies between Cheltenham and Gloucester and around the Bristol edge, while the Cotswolds, Wye Valley and Malvern Hills National Landscapes cover much of the countryside. Sites typically include edge-of-town fields, village infill, farm buildings and former employment land along the M5.
Checks we make on commercial and industrial sites in Tewkesbury
Leases
Tenancies and their protection affect when the site can be redeveloped.
Contamination
Past industrial uses usually need investigation.
Permitted development (England)
Some changes from commercial to residential use can be made through prior approval rather than a full application.
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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 40 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Gloucestershire
Will the council object to losing business land?
Some councils protect employment land. Evidence that the site is no longer needed or suitable for business can help.
Do I need to market the site first?
Not to sell to us. Marketing evidence can, however, support a planning case for change of use.
Do you buy commercial and industrial sites in Tewkesbury?
Yes. We buy commercial and industrial sites in Tewkesbury and throughout Gloucestershire, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Tewkesbury too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 40 miles from Tewkesbury, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
