Land without planning permission wanted in Bridgnorth
We want to hear from owners of land without planning permission in Bridgnorth. 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.

Land without planning permission we are looking for in Bridgnorth
Plenty of land around Bridgnorth has never had permission. What we look for first is whether new homes would fit with the existing pattern of the place. Bridgnorth is in Shropshire, about 18 miles south-east of Shrewsbury. Nearby places include Loughton, Telford and Kingswinford.
- Fields and paddocks next to existing settlements
- Plots within towns and villages that have never been built on
- Sites with a road frontage or a realistic access
- Land of any size, including single plots
Flood risk along the Severn affects Shrewsbury, Bridgnorth and riverside villages, and the M54 corridor links Telford with the West Midlands. Telford was built as a new town and still has land for regeneration, while many rural parishes plan small-scale growth through neighbourhood plans.
What usually makes or breaks it
Policy direction
National and local policy decides how a fresh application would be judged, so we read both before advising.
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.
Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.
Some land in Shropshire is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 22 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Questions owners in Bridgnorth ask
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.
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 Bridgnorth too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 22 miles from Bridgnorth, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Which planning rules apply to land in Bridgnorth?
As Bridgnorth 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.
