What land with planning permission we want near Mansfield Woodhouse
If you hold a consent in or near Mansfield Woodhouse, send us the decision notice and the approved drawings; that is usually enough for a first view. Sitting about 15 miles north of Nottingham, Mansfield Woodhouse is within Nottinghamshire, with Mansfield and Sutton-in-Ashfield close by.

- Consents with a Section 106 agreement or Community Infrastructure Levy liability
- Larger consented schemes where the owner does not want to build
Nottinghamshire covers the city of Nottingham and suburbs such as Arnold, West Bridgford and Hucknall, the former mining towns of Mansfield, Sutton-in-Ashfield and Kirkby-in-Ashfield, and Worksop, Retford and Newark-on-Trent. Green Belt surrounds the Nottingham conurbation, while the north of the county, around Worksop and Retford, has none. Typical sites include former colliery and industrial land, edge-of-town fields, farm buildings and infill plots in villages.
What usually makes or breaks it
Planning obligations
Section 106 contributions, affordable housing and any Community Infrastructure Levy all affect what the land is worth to a builder.
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.
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.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 52 miles from Mansfield Woodhouse, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Land with planning permission in Mansfield Woodhouse: common questions
Do I need to discharge the conditions before selling?
No. Many sites are sold with conditions still outstanding. We look at what is left to do and allow for it.
Can you buy if the approved scheme is not one you would build?
Yes. Sometimes we buy on the basis of the existing permission and then seek changes through a new or amended application.
Can an agent introduce land in Mansfield Woodhouse to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
Which planning rules apply to land in Mansfield Woodhouse?
As Mansfield Woodhouse is in England, national policy comes from the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
