Land without planning permission we are looking for in Brough
Near Brough, land without planning is worth discussing where it adjoins existing homes or has been put forward to the council's plan. Brough lies about 10 miles south-west of Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire. We also cover Kingston upon Hull, Beverley, Scunthorpe and the villages between them.
- Fields and paddocks next to existing settlements
- Plots within towns and villages that have never been built on
- Land where a previous application was refused for reasons that could be overcome
- Sites with a road frontage or a realistic access
A proposal to designate the Yorkshire Wolds as a new National Landscape was submitted to the Secretary of State in September 2026 and awaits a decision. The Holderness coast is one of the fastest-eroding in Europe, so coastal change can rule out sites, while the A63 and M62 corridor links Hull and Goole westwards.
What decides whether a site in Brough works
Policy direction
National and local policy decides how a fresh application would be judged, so we read both before advising.
Who pays for planning
Applications, surveys and reports cost money; on conditional and option deals we normally pay for them up front, and any costs deducted from the price are agreed and capped.
Timescale
Getting permission can take months or years; we are honest about that from the start.
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.
The East Riding of Yorkshire has no designated Green Belt, so the main policy questions near Brough are usually the settlement boundary, landscape and access.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 99 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Your questions answered
What if planning is refused?
That depends on the deal. Under a conditional contract we can usually decide whether to appeal, re-apply or walk away; if we walk away you keep your land.
Do you buy land with no planning outright?
Sometimes. If we are confident about the planning route we can buy outright, which gives you certainty sooner but reflects the risk we take on.
Which planning rules apply to land in Brough?
As Brough 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.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Brough assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
