Introduction

What is Collingwood Land ? 

Collingwood Land Limited is a specialist consultancy serving the residential and mixed-use property sector. Founded by former Land Director Ged Collingwood, the firm offers strategic and practical advice on acquisition, planning, and development to developers, landowners, promoters, and investors.

Who is Ged Collingwood?

Ged Collingwood brings nearly four decades of experience in the housebuilding sector, earning a strong reputation for his expertise in land acquisition, planning, and development. After graduating from Trent Polytechnic in 1986, he began his career as a Quantity Surveyor before swiftly transitioning into land-focused roles, driven by a passion for identifying and unlocking development potential. His early tenure with Bryant Homes in Yorkshire laid the foundation for a career defined by strategic insight and deep regional understanding.

Throughout his journey, Ged has held senior positions at many of the UK’s leading housebuilders, including Bryant, Taylor Woodrow, Persimmon, Bellway, Orion, Keepmoat, Avant, and most recently, MJ Gleeson, where he spent the past five years further honing his expertise. His intimate knowledge of the Yorkshire, North East, and Lincolnshire markets is unmatched, supported by a robust network and a consistent record of delivering results.

Today, as the founder of Collingwood Land Limited, Ged serves as a trusted advisor to developers, landowners, promoters, and investors. He offers grounded, strategic guidance to help clients navigate the complexities of land and development with confidence and clarity.
