Commercial and industrial sites wanted in Cwmbran
We are actively looking for commercial and industrial sites in Cwmbran and the surrounding area, with or without planning permission.
Older commercial and industrial land within towns is often better suited to homes than to modern business. We are interested in units, yards and estates where redevelopment for housing is realistic.

Is your land in Cwmbran the kind we want?
We look at yards and units across Cwmbran where the business use has run its course or the site sits awkwardly among houses. Cwmbran is the county town of Gwent. Nearby places we also cover include Pontypool, Caerleon and Risca.
- Industrial units and yards within residential areas
- Builders' yards, depots and storage land
- Garage, workshop and showroom sites
- Land where employment use has been marketed without success
Gwent covers south-east Wales, from Newport, Cwmbran and Pontypool to the valley towns of Ebbw Vale, Tredegar, Blackwood and Caerphilly and the market towns of Abergavenny, Chepstow and Monmouth. Typical sites include former industrial and colliery land, edge-of-town fields and village infill, with green wedges protecting gaps between settlements. Phosphate limits in the Usk and Wye catchments have held back housing in parts of the area, and the Gwent Levels bring flood and habitat constraints.
Before we make an offer in Cwmbran
Employment land protection
Councils often protect business land; evidence of marketing or lack of demand can matter.
Leases
Tenancies and their protection affect when the site can be redeveloped.
Neighbouring businesses
Homes next to noisy uses may need mitigation or may not be acceptable.
Flood risk in Wales is assessed under Technical Advice Note 15 and the Flood Map for Planning, which can be decisive for land near rivers and the coast.

Commercial and industrial sites in Cwmbran: common questions
My units are still let. Can you buy?
Yes, in many cases. We look at the leases and break dates and can plan a purchase around them.
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.

Yes. We buy commercial and industrial sites in Cwmbran and throughout Gwent, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Cwmbran too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 78 miles from Cwmbran, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
