Small sites wanted in Llandudno
Development Land Wanted buys small sites in Llandudno and right across England and Wales. Owners and agents are both welcome.
Small sites are plots for roughly one to nine homes. They are quicker to plan and build than large schemes and national policy encourages councils to bring more of them forward. We buy small sites with or without planning.

The small sites that interests us around Llandudno
Small sites in and around Llandudno are central to what we look for, from corner plots to the odd field on the edge of a nearby village. Llandudno lies about 31 miles west of Mold in Clwyd. We also cover Deganwy, Colwyn Bay, Abergele and the villages between them.
- Corner plots and side gardens with road frontage
- Garage blocks and small yards
- Plots with consent for one to nine homes
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
Clwyd covers north-east Wales, from Wrexham, Deeside, Buckley, Mold and Flint to the coastal towns of Rhyl, Prestatyn, Colwyn Bay and Llandudno and the market towns of the Vale of Clwyd. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, former industrial land around Deeside and Wrexham, farm buildings and village infill. There is no grey belt in Wales, but Future Wales anticipates a green belt around Wrexham and Deeside, and the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley National Landscape is a major constraint.
What decides whether a site in Llandudno works
Access
Even small sites need a safe access and parking.
Affordable housing thresholds
In England affordable housing is usually only sought on schemes of ten or more homes; in Wales many councils seek contributions from smaller sites, sometimes a single home.
Drainage
Sustainable drainage and sewer connections can still be significant on small sites.
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 96 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Your questions answered
Do small sites need affordable housing?
In England, affordable housing is generally sought on major development of ten or more homes, though some rural areas set lower thresholds. In Wales, many Local Development Plans seek contributions from smaller sites, sometimes from a single home.

Yes. Single plots, with or without consent, are part of what we buy.
Is Llandudno too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 96 miles from Llandudno, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Llandudno assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
