Is your land in Mirfield the kind we want?

- Small yards or garages between houses
- Land with or without an earlier planning history
West Yorkshire centres on Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield and Halifax, with many mill and mining towns such as Dewsbury, Batley, Keighley, Castleford and Pontefract. Green Belt covers much of the open land between these towns, so former mill, industrial and colliery land and town-centre sites are major sources of housing land. Grey belt and smaller fringe sites on the urban edge can also come forward.
Checks we make on infill plots in Mirfield
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.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
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.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 78 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Your questions answered

There is no fixed figure; it depends on the street. A plot that allows a home similar in width to its neighbours, with space to the sides, is a good start.

Often, yes. We make sure access, boundaries and services are set out so your own home is protected.

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.
