The infill plots that interests us around Hailsham
We look for infill plots across Hailsham and the surrounding villages, particularly where there is room for parking off the road. Hailsham is in East Sussex, about 11 miles east of Lewes. Nearby places include Eastbourne, Seaford and Bexhill-on-Sea.
- Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
- Side gardens with their own road frontage
- Corner plots within built-up areas
- Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
Brighton and Hove has very limited land between the Downs and the sea, so redevelopment of commercial buildings, garages and yards is common there. Inland, the A22 and A26 towns and High Weald villages see smaller schemes, where ancient woodland and the historic field pattern are frequent considerations.
Before we make an offer in Hailsham
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.
Parking and access
A safe access and enough parking can decide small schemes.
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.
East Sussex has no designated Green Belt, so the main policy questions near Hailsham are usually the settlement boundary, landscape and access.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 149 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Your questions answered
Will my neighbours be consulted?
Yes. The council consults neighbours on planning applications, and their comments are considered alongside policy.
Do small infill sites need biodiversity net gain?
In England, from 6 August 2026 most non-major sites of 0.2 hectares or less are exempt from mandatory BNG, unless priority habitat is affected. Wales uses a different approach.

No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 149 miles from Hailsham, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
