Is your land in Kingston upon Hull the kind we want?
For land on the edges of Kingston upon Hull with no consent yet, the first questions are access, flood risk and how the council's current plan treats the area. Kingston upon Hull lies about 8 miles south-east of Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire. We also cover Hedon, Beverley, Brough and the villages between them.
- Fields and paddocks next to existing settlements
- Land the owner has put forward to a local plan or call for sites
- Plots within towns and villages that have never been built on
- Land where a previous application was refused for reasons that could be overcome
The East Riding of Yorkshire, as used here, includes Kingston upon Hull as well as Beverley, Bridlington, Goole, Driffield and many villages across the Wolds and Holderness. There is no Green Belt, and land around the Humber estuary and in Holderness is often in high flood risk zones, which strongly influences where housing can go. Sites typically include edge-of-town and village land, farm buildings and former commercial or port-related land in Hull.
Before we make an offer in Kingston upon Hull
Timescale
Getting permission can take months or years; we are honest about that from the start.
Access and highways
Without a safe access, even well-located land is unlikely to get consent.
Your involvement
You can sell now, sell subject to planning, or grant an option; each asks a different amount of you.
In England, a planning permission normally has to be implemented within three years unless the council sets a different period, and councils aim to decide minor applications within eight weeks and major ones within thirteen.
The East Riding of Yorkshire has no designated Green Belt, so the main policy questions near Kingston upon Hull are usually the settlement boundary, landscape and access.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 105 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Frequently asked in the East Riding of Yorkshire
Who pays for the planning application?
On a subject-to-planning contract or an option agreement, we normally pay for the application and the reports that go with it. Under an option, agreed costs may later be deducted from the price; any deduction is capped and set out in the heads of terms.
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.
Which planning rules apply to land in Kingston upon Hull?
As Kingston upon Hull 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 Kingston upon Hull assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
