What sites with lapsed or refused planning we want near Bedworth
Sites around Bedworth with an old refusal can be worth a second look, especially where local or national policy has since changed. In Warwickshire, Bedworth sits about 14 miles north of Warwick; Nuneaton and Coventry are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Sites where planning permission has expired
- Land refused for design, access or technical reasons
- Withdrawn applications
- Plots where policy has changed since the last decision
The M40, M6 and M69 corridors and the Chiltern Main Line through Warwick and Leamington Spa attract interest, along with land near the High Speed 2 route. The south of the county has many conservation-area villages, so heritage and design are often important considerations for small sites.
What usually makes or breaks it
Reasons for refusal
The wording of each reason tells us what would need to change.
Policy changes
National and local policy may have moved since the last decision, for better or worse.
Time since decision
The longer ago the decision, the more the context may have changed.
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 Warwickshire 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.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 19 miles from Bedworth, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Your questions answered
My application was refused. Should I appeal or re-apply?
It depends on the reasons and time limits. Sometimes a revised application is better than an appeal. We look at the decision and say what we would do.
How do you decide if a site is worth another attempt?
We look at the reasons for refusal, any appeal, current policy and the technical evidence, then give a straight view.
How quickly can you look at a site in Bedworth?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Bedworth assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
