A proposal to designate the Yorkshire Wolds as a new National Landscape was submitted to the Secretary of State in September 2026 and awaits a decision. The Holderness coast is one of the fastest-eroding in Europe, so coastal change can rule out sites, while the A63 and M62 corridor links Hull and Goole westwards.
What decides whether a site in Driffield 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.
Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 117 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.
