Is your land in Woking the kind we want?

We are looking for garage blocks and small yards around Woking, whether they are fully let, partly let or empty. Woking is in Surrey, about 6 miles north of Guildford. Nearby places include Chertsey, Weybridge and Guildford.

  • Parking courts behind houses
  • Sites reached by a shared drive or lane
  • Courts where some garages are let on licences
  • Land with or without planning history

Surrey is a county of commuter towns, including Woking, Guildford, Epsom, Reigate, Redhill, Camberley, Staines-upon-Thames and Farnham, and many villages. Most of the county is Metropolitan Green Belt, and the Surrey Hills and High Weald National Landscapes cover much of the south. Previously developed land, infill plots, garden and backland sites and grey belt are therefore central to housing supply, with larger sites usually allocated through local plans.

What usually makes or breaks it

Access rights

Neighbours may have rights to pass over the court to reach their own land.

Overlooking

Courts are usually close to existing homes, so design must protect privacy.

Ground conditions

Old fuel or asbestos garage roofs need sensible handling.

The August 2026 NPPF supports homes within reasonable walking distance (around 800 metres) of well-connected railway stations, with minimum densities of 35 homes per hectare, or 45 near higher-frequency stations.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 103 miles from Woking, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Your questions answered

How many homes could fit?

It depends on the size and shape of the court and its access; small courts may take one or two homes, larger ones more.

Is Woking too far from our Birmingham base?

No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 103 miles from Woking, and we look at land right across England and Wales.

Which planning rules apply to land in Woking?
