Residential development land wanted in Pembroke Dock
We are actively looking for residential development land in Pembroke Dock and the surrounding area, with or without planning permission.
Residential development land means a site with a credible route to new homes. Planning permission is not essential: much of the land we want has none yet. What matters is location, access and whether local policy could support housing in the next few years.

The residential development land that interests us around Pembroke Dock
Sites on the edge of Pembroke Dock or the villages nearby can be worth a conversation, especially where they are well connected by road and bus or rail. Sitting about 29 miles west of Carmarthen, Pembroke Dock is within Dyfed, with Pembroke and Milford Haven close by.
- Land next to or within an existing town, village or suburb
- Sites with a road frontage or a clear route to one
- Sites with or without planning permission, including land promoted in a Local Development Plan
- Freehold land where the owner (or all the owners) can sell
Housing growth in Dyfed is planned through Local Development Plans, with land submitted at the candidate site stage. Llanelli, Carmarthen and the Haven towns see most demand, while flood risk under TAN 15 matters on the Loughor estuary, the coast and river valleys such as the Tywi.
Checks we make on residential development land in Pembroke Dock
Settlement boundary
Land inside or touching a defined settlement usually has a clearer policy route than isolated land.
Access
A safe vehicle access with adequate visibility is often the single biggest make-or-break item.
Flood risk
We check the official flood maps early; land in the highest-risk zones is rarely suitable for homes.
Parts of Wales lie in river catchments where phosphate levels in protected rivers affect new housing, so drainage and nutrient solutions can be an early question.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 142 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Dyfed
Does my land need planning permission before you will look at it?
No. Most residential land we are asked about has no planning yet. We look at policy, access and constraints and tell you whether we think a permission is realistic, and which way of selling suits the risk.
Will you tell me if you think the land is not suitable?
Yes. If we think the site has no realistic route to homes we will say so and, where we can, explain why.
Can an agent introduce land in Pembroke Dock to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
Which planning rules apply to land in Pembroke Dock?
As Pembroke Dock 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.
