Small sites wanted in Gravesend
If you own small sites in or around Gravesend, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.
If your land could take a few homes rather than a few hundred, it is a small site. These plots are central to what we buy, and we can usually give a quick view on whether one is worth pursuing.

Is your land in Gravesend the kind we want?
We want to hear about plots for a few homes anywhere around Gravesend, including ones a larger builder has already turned down. Sitting about 14 miles north-west of Maidstone, Gravesend is within Kent, with Swanscombe and Grays close by.
- Small fields or paddocks next to villages
- Plots with consent for one to nine homes
- Sites where an earlier application can be improved
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
Nutrient neutrality advice has affected the Stour catchment around Canterbury and Ashford because of the protected Stodmarsh wetlands. High Speed 1 stations and the M2, M20 and A2 corridors are a focus for growth, while coastal flood risk matters on the Thames and Swale estuaries and Romney Marsh.
What decides whether a site in Gravesend 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.
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.
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.
Parts of Kent 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 123 miles from Gravesend, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
