What infill plots we want near Wokingham
Infill gaps in Wokingham's established streets can be among the easiest small sites to bring forward when the design respects the neighbours. Sitting about 7 miles south-east of Reading, Wokingham is within Berkshire, with Crowthorne and Bracknell close by.
- Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
- Small yards or garages between houses
- Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
- Land with or without an earlier planning history
The Elizabeth line, the Great Western Main Line and the M4 make many Berkshire settlements well connected, which matters under England's revised planning policy on locations near stations. Older office and commercial buildings in the larger towns, and paddocks and smallholdings on village edges, are common sources of smaller residential sites.
What decides whether a site in Wokingham works
Character of the street
New homes need to suit the building line, height and spacing of the street.
Neighbours' amenity
Overlooking, loss of light and outlook are the issues planners weigh most often.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
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.
Parts of Berkshire are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 91 miles from Wokingham, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
