Hallam Land
Hallam Land is one of the largest land promoters in the UK with a portfolio of over 100,000 residential plots and an unrivalled track record, resulting in permissions for 52,000 homes, as well as other uses such as commercial, logistics, retail and community development. As part of the long-standing Henry Boot group, a strong financial backing supports our land promotions and the ability to fund strategic infrastructure, to deliver complex projects. We have an honest, collaborative and personal approach, forming close partnerships with landowners, key stakeholders and communities across England, Scotland and Wales for over 35 years. With further planning reform and economic uncertainty ahead, it is now more important than ever for landowners to seek long-term, reliable partners to promote key land assets and maximise value. Our professional and proficient teams secure viable planning permissions on typically complex sites, for a wide range of landowners. The sites we manage range from small to medium residential schemes on predominantly greenfield land, to strategic urban extensions and new neighbourhoods. We also obtain permissions for large-scale, mixed-use commercial sites and logistics schemes. Through our skills and commitment, we aim to deliver positive and sustainable benefits for landowners, local communities and the environment.
