An inspector's decision carries weight in future applications.
Technical work
Some refusals turn on drainage, highways or ecology evidence that can be improved.
Time since decision
The longer ago the decision, the more the context may have changed.
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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 96 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Clwyd
Does a refusal make the land worth less?
It can affect value, but often the reasons can be addressed. Policy may also have changed since the decision.

Yes. An old permission shows the principle was once accepted, though current policy now applies.
Is Llandudno too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 96 miles from Llandudno, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Which planning rules apply to land in Llandudno?
As Llandudno is in Wales, national policy comes from Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
