NORTHERN TRUST COMPLETES LAND SALE IN BADSEY, WORCESTERSHIRE TO BROMFORD FLAGSHIP LIVEWEST
6th May 2026
Northern Trust Land Ltd is pleased to announce the successful sale of its residential development site at Brewers Lane, Badsey, Worcestershire, to Bromford Flagship LiveWest.
The 8.9-acre greenfield site benefits from outline planning permission for up to 75 dwellings, which was formally granted on 22 December 2025. The consent includes a comprehensive package of contributions towards community transport, education, sports facilities and primary healthcare, alongside a policy-compliant provision of 40% affordable housing.
The site was brought forward under a Promotion Agreement with the landowners, originally entered into on 30 November 2018. Savills, acting as marketing agent, managed a competitive disposal process which generated strong interest from a range of housebuilders and registered providers.
The site has now been acquired by Bromford Flagship LiveWest, which intends to deliver a 100% affordable housing scheme, significantly increasing the level of affordable provision and helping to address local housing needs within the Wychavon district.
John Tootell, Strategic Land Director at Northern Trust Land Ltd, commented:
“We are delighted to have completed the sale of our Brewers Lane site to Bromford Flagship LiveWest. Having commenced promotion of this site in 2018, it is hugely rewarding to have secured planning permission and now placed the site in the hands of a developer to deliver the vision. It is especially rewarding to see the site being brought forward as a 100% affordable housing scheme. This will make a meaningful contribution to meeting local housing needs in Badsey and the surrounding area, delivering real benefits for the community.”
Catherine Jarrett, Regional Director of New Homes at Bromford Flagship LiveWest,said: “It’s been a pleasure to work with Northern Trust and Savills to see this land purchase through. We’ll be developing this site into an all-affordable housing scheme, to be built by our in-house construction team, and we’re really excited to see the homes and community grow and take shape as we bring more much-needed affordable housing to Wychavon.”
Kate McCree, Associate Director at Savills added “Following a successful public marketing campaign, which generated a good number of high-quality proposals, we are very pleased to have secured Bromford Flagship LiveWest as the selected development partner at Brewers Lane, Badsey. It was a pleasure to work with the landowners and Northern Trust Land Ltd and together we look forward to seeing the delivery of the proposed scheme.”
Northern Trust Land continues to work closely with landowners, local authorities and professional advisors to promote and deliver strategic land opportunities across the UK, supporting sustainable development and long-term community growth.
