Farmland and paddocks we are looking for in Atherstone

- Land with road frontage or a farm track to a road
- Land put forward to a local plan or call for sites
- Land let on a farm business tenancy or grazing licence
Warwickshire includes Nuneaton, Bedworth and Rugby in the north and east, Warwick, Leamington Spa and Kenilworth in the centre, and Stratford-upon-Avon and many villages in the south. Green Belt covers much of the north and west, next to Birmingham and Coventry, and the Cotswolds National Landscape reaches the south of the county. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, farm buildings, village infill and former industrial or colliery land around Nuneaton and Bedworth.
What decides whether a site in Atherstone works
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.
Landscape
Protected landscapes and sensitive views limit what may be acceptable.
In England, the revised National Planning Policy Framework published on 17 August 2026 replaced the old "tilted balance" with new settlement policies: development within a settlement should normally be approved unless the harm substantially outweighs the benefits, while land outside a settlement can gain support in defined circumstances.
Some land in Warwickshire 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 15 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Farmland and paddocks in Atherstone: common questions
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.
How much land do you need?
Anything from a single paddock to larger holdings. Smaller parcels next to villages can be very suitable.
Is Atherstone too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 15 miles from Atherstone, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
How quickly can you look at a site in Atherstone?
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.
