Small sites wanted in Welshpool
Development Land Wanted buys small sites in Welshpool and right across England and Wales. Owners and agents are both welcome.
A small site is usually land for fewer than ten homes, such as a corner plot, a side garden or a small field. Larger housebuilders often overlook them, but small sites are exactly the kind of land we want across England and Wales.

Is your land in Welshpool the kind we want?
Small sites in and around Welshpool are central to what we look for, from corner plots to the odd field on the edge of a nearby village. Welshpool lies about 30 miles north of Llandrindod Wells in Powys. We also cover Newtown, Rhosllannerchrugog, Wrexham and the villages between them.
- Corner plots and side gardens with road frontage
- Small fields or paddocks next to villages
- Plots with consent for one to nine homes
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
Most new homes are planned in the market towns and larger villages, with smaller sites, farm buildings and infill plots in rural communities. Flood risk under TAN 15 in the Severn and Wye valleys, and the Cambrian Line and Heart of Wales Line rail corridors, also influence where development is supported.
What decides whether a site in Welshpool works
Design fit
A small scheme has to suit the street and the neighbours.
Access
Even small sites need a safe access and parking.
Drainage
Sustainable drainage and sewer connections can still be significant on small sites.
In Wales, planning decisions are guided by Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040, with land for housing identified through each council's Local Development Plan, including candidate site stages when plans are reviewed.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 53 miles from Welshpool, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
