Bespoke land, planning, and development consultancy

Whether you own a single plot of land or a large strategic site, knowing how to unlock its full potential is rarely straightforward. Planning policy, market conditions, viability considerations, and the interests of multiple stakeholders all make the development process one of the most complex journeys a landowner or developer can undertake.

Our land, planning and development team is here to simplify that process. Drawing on over 180 years of experience in the UK property market, we provide practical, informed advice across residential and commercial development, planning consultancy, and renewable energy.

Our RICS-accredited professionals understand the specific challenges in many different markets and tailor our approach accordingly. Get in touch to discuss an opportunity with our experts.

What land, planning and development services do we offer?

Our team provides specialist support across four core areas of land and development activity. From identifying and promoting strategic sites to securing planning consent and advising on renewable energy opportunities, we cover every aspect of the development process.

Residential development LPD

Planning consultancy and development appraisal

The planning system is one of the most significant factors in determining the value and deliverability of any development scheme. Our planning consultancy and development appraisal services include:

  • Land use and development appraisals
  • Viability assessments and reports
  • Planning applications and appeals
  • Call for site submissions
  • Local Plan and Neighbourhood Plan landowner representations
Renewable Energy LPD

Renewable energy and data centres

The energy transition has created new opportunities for landowners across the UK. Solar, wind and battery storage schemes are now being developed at scale on a wide variety of sites, and securing the right agreement at the right time is essential to maximising long-term returns. Our renewable energy and data centre services include:

  • Site identification
  • Leasehold negotiations on behalf of landowners
  • Options to lease

Director

Henry is a Director based in our Milton Keynes office, heading up the strategic land team. He specialises in land promotion and development, leading the delivery of large-scale sites across Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, and beyond, with extensive experience across the full lifecycle of strategic land projects.

Landowners often underestimate the complexity of the strategic land process, and the difference a well-structured promotion agreement makes to the outcome. Getting the right advice early, before any commitment is made, is the single most valuable thing a landowner can do.
