The infill plots that interests us around Haywards Heath

We look for infill plots across Haywards Heath and the surrounding villages, particularly where there is room for parking off the road. In West Sussex, Haywards Heath sits about 32 miles east of Chichester; Burgess Hill and Crawley are its nearest neighbours on our list.

  • Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
  • Corner plots within built-up areas
  • Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
  • Land with or without an earlier planning history

West Sussex includes Crawley, Horsham, Haywards Heath, Burgess Hill, East Grinstead and Chichester and the coastal towns of Worthing, Bognor Regis, Littlehampton, Shoreham-by-Sea and Lancing. It has only a very small area of Green Belt on the Surrey border, but the South Downs National Park and the High Weald and Chichester Harbour National Landscapes cover large parts. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, farm buildings, infill plots and urban brownfield land.

What usually makes or breaks it

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.

The Planning and Infrastructure Act 2025 introduced Environmental Delivery Plans and a Nature Restoration Levy in England, which over time may offer an alternative to site-by-site mitigation for some environmental issues.

Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 132 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.
