Redundant buildings wanted in Heysham
Development Land Wanted buys redundant buildings in Heysham and right across England and Wales. Owners and agents are both welcome.
A redundant building is one whose original use has ended. Many make good homes through conversion, while others are better redeveloped. We look at the building, its planning position and any community or heritage interest before making an offer.

Is your land in Heysham the kind we want?
Redundant buildings in Heysham often sit in the heart of things, close to shops and transport, which can make them strong residential sites. Heysham is in Lancashire, about 21 miles north of Preston. Nearby places include Morecambe, Lancaster and Fleetwood.
- Vacant offices and commercial buildings
- Former pubs, halls, chapels and churches
- Buildings with or without existing consent
- Buildings within towns and villages
The Forest of Bowland and Arnside and Silverdale National Landscapes and a small part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park cover the rural north and east. Flood risk on the Fylde coast, the Ribble and the Lune shapes many sites, and the M6, M55 and M65 corridors link the main towns.
Before we make an offer in Heysham
Heritage
Listed buildings and conservation areas need careful design and extra consents.
Building condition
Structure, layout and light decide whether conversion makes sense.
Parking and amenity
Homes need outdoor space, bins and parking where the council expects it.
National policy in England now recognises "medium development" of 10 to 49 homes on sites up to 2.5 hectares, and asks councils to allocate at least 10% of their housing on sites of one hectare or less and a further 10% on sites of one to 2.5 hectares.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 111 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Your questions answered
Can a former pub be converted to homes?
Sometimes. Pubs are often protected by local policy, and the August 2026 NPPF aims to avoid loss of valued community facilities, so evidence about viability and need matters.
Should I strip out the building before selling?
No. Leave it as it is and tell us about its condition; we will assess it as found.
Is Heysham too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 111 miles from Heysham, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Heysham assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
