What farmland and paddocks we want near Brynmawr
We are looking for farmland near Brynmawr with a realistic access, ideally land the owner has already put forward to the Local Development Plan. Brynmawr is in Gwent, about 12 miles north-west of Cwmbran. Nearby places include Ebbw Vale, Tredegar and Rhymney.
- Fields and paddocks adjoining a town, village or suburb
- Land with road frontage or a farm track to a road
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Farmland where the owner wants to keep farming meanwhile
Newport's adopted Local Development Plan designates a green belt between Newport and Cardiff, and Future Wales anticipates a wider green belt for south-east Wales once a regional plan sets its boundary. Newport and Cwmbran see the strongest demand, while Bannau Brycheiniog National Park and the Wye Valley National Landscape cover northern and eastern parts of the area.
Checks we make on farmland and paddocks in Brynmawr
Tenancies
Agricultural tenancies affect when vacant possession can be given; we check the type and terms.
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.
In Wales a planning permission usually lasts five years before work must begin, and land purchases are subject to Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty Land Tax.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 75 miles from Brynmawr, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

My land is let to a tenant. Can I still sell?
Usually, yes. The type of tenancy decides how and when possession can be obtained, so we look at the agreement early.
