Is your land in Tonypandy the kind we want?
Sites on the edge of Tonypandy or the villages nearby can be worth a conversation, especially where they are well connected by road and bus or rail. Sitting about 10 miles north-east of Bridgend, Tonypandy is within Mid Glamorgan, with Ferndale and Tonyrefail close by.
- Land next to or within an existing town, village or suburb
- Sites with a road frontage or a clear route to one
- Land outside the highest flood risk zones, or where flood risk only affects part of the site
- Single plots, small sites, medium sites and larger strategic land
Mid Glamorgan covers the South Wales valleys of the Rhondda, Cynon, Taff and Merthyr, along with Bridgend, Pontypridd, Maesteg and Porthcawl. There is no green belt, but green wedges are used locally and the northern uplands fall within Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. Former colliery and industrial land, terraced-street infill and edge-of-settlement fields are typical sources of housing sites, with coal mining legacy and steep slopes common checks.
Checks we make on residential development land in Tonypandy
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.
Utilities and drainage
Foul and surface water drainage, and power capacity, affect cost and timing more than most owners expect.
In Wales, planning decisions are guided by Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040, with land for housing identified through each council's Local Development Plan, including candidate site stages when plans are reviewed.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 92 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Mid Glamorgan
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.
How small a site do you consider?
We look at single building plots as well as larger sites. Small sites can be very worthwhile, particularly infill land within towns and villages.
