Strategic land promotion · England
We promote land.
We take land from its agricultural value to its consented value, at our own cost, and share in the outcome. A land promoter first, with independent advice alongside.
What could your land be worth? →
Every site is different. So is every deal.
There is no fixed formula. We take on the cost and the risk of unlocking your land's value, whether that is homes or another use entirely, and shape each opportunity around the site and the people, so it works for everyone. We only do well when your land does.
One team, first walk to final sale.
01Appraisal
A straight read of your land's prospects. Free, and we only take on sites we believe in.
02Agreement
Terms shaped around you and the site. From here, we carry the cost and the risk.
03Planning
We win the planning case, by application or through the local plan. Funded by us, over years.
04Value, shared
The uplift realised in the way that best suits the site, and shared as agreed.
For landowners
Promotion at Bowmont's cost. Ownership stays yours.
↗ 02For developers
Consented sites, clean title, shaped for the buyer at the end.
↗ 03As counsel
Independent advice for councils, communities and private clients. No stake taken.

Our principal led the strategic land company that steered it through the planning system to consent. It evidences the standard Bowmont works to, never a promise about any particular site.
Where planning is heading.
The 2026 Budget for landowners: rent, sale timing and land for social housing
Most of the Budget was about households. Four parts of it reach land directly, and one of them makes selling land for social housing simpler.
Read →Solar on farmland: two routes to consent, and what to understand before you sign
The government wants far more solar and needs land to build it. For a landowner who is approached, the commitment is long and the timetable is uncertain.
Read →The local plan deadline has moved to March: what it means if your land is in a draft plan
The extra three months belong to the council. The plan still has to be examined, and an allocation is tested before it is confirmed.
Read →Could your land have potential?
A planning read of your land drawn from national data, then a personal reply from the team. An indication, never a valuation.
No obligation · we reply personally
Many English councils cannot currently show a five-year housing land supply. Where that is true of yours, national policy tilts towards approving well-placed homes beside the settlement, outside the Green Belt. Your read tells you where your council stands.
