What farmland and paddocks we want near Llantrisant
Around Llantrisant, paddocks and fields beside existing homes can have real potential, even where they have been grazed or farmed for generations. Llantrisant lies about 9 miles east of Bridgend in Mid Glamorgan. We also cover Beddau, Tonyrefail, Pontypridd and the villages between them.

- Land let on a farm business tenancy or grazing licence
Mid Glamorgan covers the South Wales valleys of the Rhondda, Cynon, Taff and Merthyr, along with Bridgend, Pontypridd, Maesteg and Porthcawl. There is no green belt, but green wedges are used locally and the northern uplands fall within Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. Former colliery and industrial land, terraced-street infill and edge-of-settlement fields are typical sources of housing sites, with coal mining legacy and steep slopes common checks.
What usually makes or breaks it
Relationship to the settlement
Land that reads as an extension of a place is usually more promising than isolated fields.
Landscape
Protected landscapes and sensitive views limit what may be acceptable.
Best and most versatile land
High-grade agricultural land can be a factor in planning decisions.
In Wales, planning decisions are guided by Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040, with land for housing identified through each council's Local Development Plan, including candidate site stages when plans are reviewed.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 93 miles from Llantrisant, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
