Description
Extending to approximately 42.94ac (17.39ha) the land is accessed off the A46 via a hardcore track which follows the public right of way and separates the land into two fields. Having been cropped with Winter Barley for the last growing season, the northern half of the parcel is in stubble with the southern half which sits slightly wetter having been tilled.
There is a 4m greening boundary around the cropping area and the land is largely enclosed by mature hedging, with the boundary fronting the road also having post and rail fencing. On the right as you enter the land, there is field midden of clean horse manure.
There is a small reservoir/pond that is situated in the northern corner of the site that may be suitable for irrigation purposes, however this has not been explored in any detail and no guarantee will be given.
In 2005 a planning application (AB/05/01725/AB) for Agricultural Storage for Hay/Straw and Farm Machinery was given prior approval, however, was never built out.
