Is your land in Ebbw Vale the kind we want?
Small sites in and around Ebbw Vale are central to what we look for, from corner plots to the odd field on the edge of a nearby village. Sitting about 12 miles north-west of Cwmbran, Ebbw Vale is within Gwent, with Tredegar and Brynmawr close by.
- Corner plots and side gardens with road frontage
- Plots with consent for one to nine homes
- Sites where an earlier application can be improved
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
Gwent covers south-east Wales, from Newport, Cwmbran and Pontypool to the valley towns of Ebbw Vale, Tredegar, Blackwood and Caerphilly and the market towns of Abergavenny, Chepstow and Monmouth. Typical sites include former industrial and colliery land, edge-of-town fields and village infill, with green wedges protecting gaps between settlements. Phosphate limits in the Usk and Wye catchments have held back housing in parts of the area, and the Gwent Levels bring flood and habitat constraints.
Before we make an offer in Ebbw Vale
Design fit
A small scheme has to suit the street and the neighbours.
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.
The Planning (Wales) Act 2026 received Royal Assent on 27 April 2026 and is being brought into force in stages, consolidating Welsh planning law into a single Welsh framework.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 77 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.
