The land with planning permission that interests us around Ystradgynlais
For consented land around Ystradgynlais, the first things we read are the decision notice, the conditions and any legal agreement attached to the permission. Ystradgynlais is in Powys, about 35 miles south-west of Llandrindod Wells. Nearby places include Ystalyfera, Neath and Clydach.
- Outline permissions, full permissions and approved reserved matters
- Sites where some pre-commencement conditions are still to be discharged
- Single plots with consent for one or two homes
- Larger consented schemes where the owner does not want to build
Most new homes are planned in the market towns and larger villages, with smaller sites, farm buildings and infill plots in rural communities. Flood risk under TAN 15 in the Severn and Wye valleys, and the Cambrian Line and Heart of Wales Line rail corridors, also influence where development is supported.
What decides whether a site in Ystradgynlais works
Conditions
Pre-commencement conditions, such as drainage or ecology details, must be dealt with before work can lawfully start.
Planning obligations
Section 106 contributions, affordable housing and any Community Infrastructure Levy all affect what the land is worth to a builder.
Title and access
Consent does not cure title problems, so rights of access and covenants still need checking.
In Wales a planning permission usually lasts five years before work must begin, and land purchases are subject to Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty Land Tax.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 94 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.
