Is your land in Bridlington the kind we want?
Around Bridlington, paddocks and fields beside existing homes can have real potential, even where they have been grazed or farmed for generations. Bridlington is in the East Riding of Yorkshire, about 19 miles north-east of Beverley. Nearby places include Driffield, Hornsea and Scarborough.
- Fields and paddocks adjoining a town, village or suburb
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Land let on a farm business tenancy or grazing licence
- Farmland where the owner wants to keep farming meanwhile
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 farmland and paddocks in Bridlington
Relationship to the settlement
Land that reads as an extension of a place is usually more promising than isolated fields.
Farm schemes
Environmental and payment schemes may have obligations to unwind or agree.
Best and most versatile land
High-grade agricultural land can be a factor in planning decisions.
National policy in England now recognises "medium development" of 10 to 49 homes on sites up to 2.5 hectares, and asks councils to allocate at least 10% of their housing on sites of one hectare or less and a further 10% on sites of one to 2.5 hectares.
The East Riding of Yorkshire has no designated Green Belt, so the main policy questions near Bridlington are usually the settlement boundary, landscape and access.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 127 miles from Bridlington, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
