The infill plots that interests us around Uckfield
We look for infill plots across Uckfield and the surrounding villages, particularly where there is room for parking off the road. Uckfield is in East Sussex, about 8 miles north-east of Lewes. Nearby places include Crowborough, Lewes and Haywards Heath.
- Side gardens with their own road frontage
- Small yards or garages between houses
- Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
- Land with or without an earlier planning history
East Sussex runs from Brighton and Hove along the coast to Eastbourne, Bexhill and Hastings, with inland towns such as Lewes, Uckfield, Hailsham and Crowborough. There is no Green Belt, but the South Downs National Park and the High Weald National Landscape cover a large share of the county, squeezing development between protected countryside and the sea. Typical sites are small edge-of-town fields, infill plots, garden land and urban brownfield sites.
Checks we make on infill plots in Uckfield

Trees
Protected trees or trees in a conservation area can limit what fits.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
In England, the revised National Planning Policy Framework published on 17 August 2026 replaced the old "tilted balance" with new settlement policies: development within a settlement should normally be approved unless the harm substantially outweighs the benefits, while land outside a settlement can gain support in defined circumstances.

Questions owners in Uckfield ask
Can I sell a plot next to my own house?
Often, yes. We make sure access, boundaries and services are set out so your own home is protected.
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.
Can an agent introduce land in Uckfield 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.
How quickly can you look at a site in Uckfield?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
