Contentious Sites


Before you embark on plans for the development of any land or buildings, it goes without saying that it’s good practice to do your due diligence so that you are aware of any contentious issues that may arise. Here at the Land Buying Experts, our experienced advisers can offer research assistance and advice.

However, if you’re in the position that you’ve gone ahead with a planning application that has been turned down on the basis of a contentious issue, we may also be able to help turn that around.


Reasons that could give rise to contentious land issues include:

  • Sites of architectural or historical importance
  • Brownfield land
  • Conservation areas with a Tree Preservation Order
  • Nearby area of outstanding beauty
  • Wetlands / Ramsar sites
  • Listed buildings
  • Contaminated land
  • Adverse planning history
  • Flood plains
  • Flight paths
  • Sunlight issues

Flooded Land

Our experienced property advisers will be able to offer you advice and guidance at both pre and post planning stages.

Dealing with land or buildings where contentious issues arise can often be a complicated and drawn-out process and experience tells us that it pays, in the longer term, to have specialist advice and guidance right from the start.

If you have any queries about contentious issues on a site you’re looking to develop or you have been refused planning permission due to contentious site or land issues, and are unsure how to move forward, our property experts will be able to help. Simply call us on 01202 684400 or email us at info@landbuyingexperts.co.uk for more information.
