Redundant buildings wanted in Moreton
We want to hear from owners of redundant buildings in Moreton. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
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 Moreton the kind we want?
We are interested in buildings around Moreton that have outlived their original use, whether they would be converted or replaced. Sitting about 6 miles west of Liverpool, Moreton is within Merseyside, with Wallasey and Birkenhead close by.
- Vacant offices and commercial buildings
- Shops with upper floors or whole retail buildings
- Buildings with or without existing consent
- Sites where demolition and rebuilding may be better than conversion
Merseyside centres on Liverpool, with Birkenhead and Wallasey across the Mersey, Southport and Formby on the coast, and towns such as St Helens, Bootle, Huyton and Kirkby. Green Belt separates many of these places and covers much of the remaining open land, so most housing comes from previously developed land, docks, former industrial estates and town-centre sites. Grey belt and small fringe sites can also come forward.
What usually makes or breaks it
Community value
Pubs and community buildings may be listed as assets of community value or protected by policy.
Heritage
Listed buildings and conservation areas need careful design and extra consents.
Building condition
Structure, layout and light decide whether conversion makes sense.
In England, a planning permission normally has to be implemented within three years unless the council sets a different period, and councils aim to decide minor applications within eight weeks and major ones within thirteen.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 77 miles from Moreton, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

My building is listed. Is that a problem?
