Land with planning permission we are looking for in Aberkenfig
If you hold a consent in or near Aberkenfig, send us the decision notice and the approved drawings; that is usually enough for a first view. In Mid Glamorgan, Aberkenfig sits about 2 miles north of Bridgend; Bridgend and Pencoed are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Outline permissions, full permissions and approved reserved matters
- Permissions that are close to their time limit to start work
- Consents with a Section 106 agreement or Community Infrastructure Levy liability
- Sites where some pre-commencement conditions are still to be discharged
The South Wales Metro and upgraded valley rail lines are a focus for growth, with stations at Pontypridd, Aberdare, Treorchy and Merthyr Tydfil. Lower-lying land around Bridgend, Pencoed and Llantrisant along the M4 corridor sees more demand for larger housing sites, and flood risk under TAN 15 matters on the valley floors.
Checks we make on land with planning permission in Aberkenfig
Conditions
Pre-commencement conditions, such as drainage or ecology details, must be dealt with before work can lawfully start.
Scheme design
Some approved layouts are hard to build or sell; others can be improved with a fresh application.
Title and access
Consent does not cure title problems, so rights of access and covenants still need checking.
In Wales, planning decisions are guided by Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040, with land for housing identified through each council's Local Development Plan, including candidate site stages when plans are reviewed.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 100 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

No. Many sites are sold with conditions still outstanding. We look at what is left to do and allow for it.
