Compulsory Purchase Order Advice in Gloucestershire & The Cotswolds

A Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO) enables public bodies and, in certain circumstances, developers to acquire land for infrastructure, regeneration and public interest projects. Wreyland advises both acquiring authorities and claimants across Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds, with experience covering rural, residential and commercial property.

While the law provides for fair compensation, the compulsory purchase process is often complex and technical. Early specialist advice is essential to protect property interests and ensure that all heads of claim are properly identified and evidenced.

We interpret CPO schemes, negotiate with acquiring authorities and prepare robust compensation claims covering land value, disturbance and related losses. In most cases, professional fees are met by the acquiring authority, ensuring claimants can access expert advice without personal financial exposure.
