Land without planning permission wanted in Treharris
We want to hear from owners of land without planning permission in Treharris. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
If your land has never had planning permission, it can still be development land. We check whether housing is credible under current policy and, where it is, propose a deal that shares out the planning risk fairly.

What land without planning permission we want near Treharris
For land on the edges of Treharris with no consent yet, the first questions are access, flood risk and how the council's current plan treats the area. In Mid Glamorgan, Treharris sits about 16 miles north-east of Bridgend; Nelson and Gelligaer are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Land the owner has put forward to a Local Development Plan candidate site process
- 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
The South Wales Metro and upgraded valley rail lines are a focus for growth, with stations at Pontypridd, Aberdare, Treorchy and Merthyr Tydfil. Lower-lying land around Bridgend, Pencoed and Llantrisant along the M4 corridor sees more demand for larger housing sites, and flood risk under TAN 15 matters on the valley floors.
What decides whether a site in Treharris works
Policy direction
National and local policy decides how a fresh application would be judged, so we read both before advising.
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.
The Planning (Wales) Act 2026 received Royal Assent on 27 April 2026 and is being brought into force in stages, consolidating Welsh planning law into a single Welsh framework.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 85 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Land without planning permission in Treharris: common questions
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.
Can I keep using the land while planning is sought?
Usually, yes. Farming, grazing or other current uses can generally continue until completion, subject to what we agree.
Is Treharris too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 85 miles from Treharris, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Treharris assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
