Is your land in Stafford the kind we want?

Infill gaps in Stafford's established streets can be among the easiest small sites to bring forward when the design respects the neighbours. Stafford is the county town of Staffordshire. Nearby places we also cover include Rugeley, Cannock and Great Wyrley.

  • Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
  • Corner plots within built-up areas
  • Small yards or garages between houses
  • Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking

Staffordshire includes Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle-under-Lyme, Stafford, Burton upon Trent, Tamworth, Lichfield, Cannock and the moorland town of Leek. Green Belt surrounds the Potteries and covers the south of the county next to the West Midlands, while the Peak District National Park and Cannock Chase National Landscape are major designations. Typical sites include former pottery and colliery land, edge-of-town fields, farm buildings and village infill.

What decides whether a site in Stafford works

Parking and access

A safe access and enough parking can decide small schemes.

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.

Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 20 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Questions owners in Stafford ask

Will my neighbours be consulted?

Yes. The council consults neighbours on planning applications, and their comments are considered alongside policy.

No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 20 miles from Stafford, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
