Why buy land in Lancashire
Lancashire is grass and livestock country. 82% of its farmed land is grass, across 3,399 commercial holdings running about 215,000 cattle and 633,000 sheep. For land that means grazing to let or take nearby, working livestock markets, and neighbours who farm.
Yorkshire Dales National Park, the Arnside and Silverdale National Landscape, and the Forest of Bowland National Landscape protect a large part of Lancashire, which keeps the countryside you are buying into as it is. Building or converting inside a protected landscape needs more care, and inside a National Park the park authority, not the council, decides planning.
24% of Lancashire is Green Belt, which keeps the countryside around its towns open. New homes there need special circumstances, so check the designation on any plot before you count on planning.
Planning is decided by 14 councils in Lancashire, so rules on agricultural occupancy conditions and barn conversions vary by district. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.
