What residential development land we want near Kingston upon Hull

- Freehold land where the owner (or all the owners) can sell
The East Riding of Yorkshire, as used here, includes Kingston upon Hull as well as Beverley, Bridlington, Goole, Driffield and many villages across the Wolds and Holderness. There is no Green Belt, and land around the Humber estuary and in Holderness is often in high flood risk zones, which strongly influences where housing can go. Sites typically include edge-of-town and village land, farm buildings and former commercial or port-related land in Hull.
What decides whether a site in Kingston upon Hull works
Settlement boundary
Land inside or touching a defined settlement usually has a clearer policy route than isolated land.
Flood risk
We check the official flood maps early; land in the highest-risk zones is rarely suitable for homes.
Development plan position
Whether the council has an up-to-date plan shapes how applications are judged; in England, housing land supply also matters.
Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.
The East Riding of Yorkshire has no designated Green Belt, so the main policy questions near Kingston upon Hull are usually the settlement boundary, landscape and access.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 105 miles from Kingston upon Hull, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
