Farmland and paddocks wanted in Gorseinon
We want to hear from owners of farmland and paddocks in Gorseinon. 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 Development Plan, then explain which deal would suit.

Farmland and paddocks we are looking for in Gorseinon
Fields that wrap around the edges of Gorseinon and its neighbouring villages are the farmland we most want to talk about. In West Glamorgan, Gorseinon sits about 5 miles north-west of Swansea; Pontarddulais and Llanelli are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- 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
Regeneration around Swansea city centre, the waterfront and the Tawe and Neath valleys is a focus for new homes, alongside economic change around Port Talbot. The M4 corridor and the South Wales Main Line link the main towns, and coal mining legacy checks are common in the valleys.
Checks we make on farmland and paddocks in Gorseinon
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.
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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 109 miles away, and we buy land throughout 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.
Is Gorseinon too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 109 miles from Gorseinon, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Which planning rules apply to land in Gorseinon?
As Gorseinon is in Wales, national policy comes from Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
