What usually makes or breaks it
Access rights
Neighbours may have rights to pass over the court to reach their own land.
Displaced parking
Councils often want to know where current users will park.
Ground conditions
Old fuel or asbestos garage roofs need sensible handling.
Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.
Some land in Greater Manchester 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.

Frequently asked in Greater Manchester
Some garages are still rented. Is that a problem?
Usually not. Garage lets are often on short licences. We look at the terms and allow time to end them properly.
Who else might have rights over the court?
Neighbours sometimes have rights of way across garage courts. We check the title and any deeds for this.
Is Tyldesley too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 71 miles from Tyldesley, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Can an agent introduce land in Tyldesley to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
