The residential development land that interests us around Brierley Hill
In and around Brierley Hill we are interested in land that sits naturally alongside existing streets, where new homes would read as part of the place. Brierley Hill is in the West Midlands, about 9 miles west of Birmingham. Nearby places include Stourbridge, Dudley and Kingswinford.
- 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
- Freehold land where the owner (or all the owners) can sell
The West Midlands county is a dense conurbation of Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Coventry, Solihull, Walsall, Dudley and the Black Country towns. Green Belt surrounds and separates parts of the conurbation, including the Meriden Gap between Birmingham and Coventry, so most housing comes from previously developed land: former industrial and canal-side sites, yards, garage courts and town centres. Grey belt and small fringe sites around Sutton Coldfield, Solihull and Aldridge can also come forward.
Before we make an offer in Brierley Hill
Settlement boundary
Land inside or touching a defined settlement usually has a clearer policy route than isolated land.
Development plan position
Whether the council has an up-to-date plan shapes how applications are judged; in England, housing land supply also matters.
Utilities and drainage
Foul and surface water drainage, and power capacity, affect cost and timing more than most owners expect.
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.
Some land in the West Midlands is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.

Yes. If we think the site has no realistic route to homes we will say so and, where we can, explain why.
