Farmland and paddocks wanted in Tynemouth
We want to hear from owners of farmland and paddocks in Tynemouth. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
A paddock or field next to a village or town may have development potential, even if it has always been farmed. We assess how the land relates to the settlement, its access and the local plan, then explain which deal would suit.

Is your land in Tynemouth the kind we want?
We are looking for farmland near Tynemouth with a realistic access, ideally land the owner has already put forward to the local plan. Tynemouth lies about 8 miles north-east of Newcastle upon Tyne in Tyne and Wear. We also cover North Shields, South Shields, Whitley Bay and the villages between them.
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Land put forward to a local plan or call for sites
- Land let on a farm business tenancy or grazing licence
- Farmland where the owner wants to keep farming meanwhile
Tyne and Wear centres on Newcastle upon Tyne, Gateshead and Sunderland, with South Shields, North Shields, Tynemouth, Whitley Bay, Washington and Jarrow. Green Belt surrounds the conurbation and separates its towns, so most housing comes from previously developed land, former shipyard and industrial sites, and town-centre regeneration. Grey belt and small fringe sites around villages can also come forward.
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.
Farm schemes
Environmental and payment schemes may have obligations to unwind or agree.
The Planning and Infrastructure Act 2025 introduced Environmental Delivery Plans and a Nature Restoration Levy in England, which over time may offer an alternative to site-by-site mitigation for some environmental issues.
Some land in Tyne and Wear is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 172 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Your questions answered
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.
Will I lose my farm payments?
Development land may need to leave a scheme at some point. Check your agreements and take advice; we plan timing around them where we can.
How quickly can you look at a site in Tynemouth?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Tynemouth assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
