What land with planning permission we want near Kidsgrove

- Permissions that are close to their time limit to start work
- Sites where some pre-commencement conditions are still to be discharged
- Larger consented schemes where the owner does not want to build
Former coalfield areas around Cannock and north Staffordshire often need mining risk checks, and schemes near Cannock Chase contribute to mitigation for its protected heathland. The M6, A38 and West Coast Main Line corridors, and the High Speed 2 route, influence where growth is planned.
What decides whether a site in Kidsgrove works
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 40 miles from Kidsgrove, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Land with planning permission in Kidsgrove: 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.
Will the Section 106 obligations transfer to the buyer?
Planning obligations usually run with the land, so they bind whoever owns it. We review them as part of our due diligence.

No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 40 miles from Kidsgrove, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Which planning rules apply to land in Kidsgrove?
