The farmland and paddocks that interests us around Tonyrefail
Fields that wrap around the edges of Tonyrefail and its neighbouring villages are the farmland we most want to talk about. Sitting about 8 miles north-east of Bridgend, Tonyrefail is within Mid Glamorgan, with Tonypandy and Beddau close by.
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Land put forward to a Local Development Plan candidate site process
- Land let on a farm business tenancy or grazing licence
- Farmland where the owner wants to keep farming meanwhile
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.
Tenancies
Agricultural tenancies affect when vacant possession can be given; we check the type and terms.
Landscape
Protected landscapes and sensitive views limit what may be acceptable.
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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 93 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.
