The small sites that interests us around Sandhurst
Small sites in and around Sandhurst are central to what we look for, from corner plots to the odd field on the edge of a nearby village. Sandhurst lies about 11 miles south-east of Reading in Berkshire. We also cover Crowthorne, Yateley, Camberley and the villages between them.

- Small fields or paddocks next to villages
- Garage blocks and small yards
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
Berkshire is a string of large towns along the Thames Valley, including Reading, Slough, Bracknell, Maidenhead and Wokingham, with Newbury and smaller villages to the west. The east of the county is heavily constrained by the Metropolitan Green Belt, while the west falls partly within the North Wessex Downs National Landscape. Sites that come forward are often brownfield and town-centre land, edge-of-settlement fields and possible grey belt on the Green Belt fringe.
Checks we make on small sites in Sandhurst
Design fit
A small scheme has to suit the street and the neighbours.
BNG (England)
From 6 August 2026 non-major sites of 0.2 ha or less are generally exempt from mandatory BNG unless priority habitat is affected.
Drainage
Sustainable drainage and sewer connections can still be significant on small sites.
The Planning and Infrastructure Act 2025 introduced Environmental Delivery Plans and a Nature Restoration Levy in England, which over time may offer an alternative to site-by-site mitigation for some environmental issues.
Parts of Berkshire are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 96 miles from Sandhurst, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
