Is your land in Bedlington the kind we want?
Across Bedlington, empty offices, shops and former pubs can find a new life as homes when the building and the planning position line up. Bedlington lies about 5 miles south-east of Morpeth in Northumberland. We also cover Cramlington, Blyth, Ashington and the villages between them.
- Vacant offices and commercial buildings
- Former pubs, halls, chapels and churches
- Buildings with or without existing consent
- Buildings within towns and villages
The reopened Northumberland Line rail service between Ashington, Bedlington, Blyth and Newcastle has made south-east Northumberland a focus for new homes. The coast has internationally protected bird and dune habitats, so coastal schemes often contribute to recreation mitigation, and coal mining legacy checks are common inland.

Frequently asked in Northumberland
My building is listed. Is that a problem?
Not necessarily, but it means listed building consent as well as planning permission, and design must respect the building's significance.

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 Bedlington assessed?
