Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.

How wide does an infill plot need to be?
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.

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

No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 86 miles from Trowbridge, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
How quickly can you look at a site in Trowbridge?
