It's worth about exactly what you are willing to pay for it. Ask them what they want for it and see if it's broadly similar.

Does it come with mineral rights or not?

I bit some land falling off my bike, but my teeth were only strong enough to bite about 1m x 2.4m, you're gonna need great nashers for 90 sq m mate

i have a related question - how long is a piece of string normally?

Incidentally, is the land located in an out of town plot near middlesborough, or is it in High Holborn (not that it will make any difference to the value, i'm just curious)?

I'd hazard a guess it might be just a teeny bit higher in High Holborn. I could be wrong. I dunno.

Think yourself lucky it's not late Eighties Tokyo:

[url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_asset_price_bubble#History ]Prices were highest in Tokyo's Ginza district in 1989, with choice properties fetching over 100 million yen (approximately $1 million US dollars) [b]per square meter[/b] ($93,000 per square foot).[/url]

Depends on location, any planning restrictions, access issues etc

What you need, is a nice sympathetic government to set a ridiculously low price for the plot of land, enabling you to reap massive rewards from the subsequent development of it...

Course, it's London.

The land may have bin used for much needed housing for locals, had no wealthy development corporations stepped in. Shooduv really.

Anyway, that's all a bit political and don't help the OP none. I'd have a shufty abahyt for other plots nearby, see what they've gone for. Local Land Registry or something down he council offices should have the info.

land is not worth very much unless planning permission is likely or has been granted. there is not much money in empty land that is going to stay undeveloped
