What infill plots we want near Ystradgynlais
We look for infill plots across Ystradgynlais and the surrounding villages, particularly where there is room for parking off the road. In Powys, Ystradgynlais sits about 35 miles south-west of Llandrindod Wells; Ystalyfera and Neath are its nearest neighbours on our list.

Powys is a large and sparsely populated county with market towns such as Newtown, Welshpool, Brecon, Llandrindod Wells, Builth Wells and Ystradgynlais and many small villages. There is no green belt, and Bannau Brycheiniog National Park covers much of the south. Phosphate limits in the Wye and Usk river catchments have restricted new housing in large parts of the county, making drainage the first question for many sites.
Checks we make on infill plots in Ystradgynlais
Neighbours' amenity
Overlooking, loss of light and outlook are the issues planners weigh most often.
Trees
Protected trees or trees in a conservation area can limit what fits.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
Welsh planning policy seeks a net benefit for biodiversity rather than using England's statutory biodiversity net gain metric, so ecology is assessed differently on Welsh sites.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 94 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.
