Lot 2 comprises a ring-fenced block of productive and gently sloping pastureland in two principal parcels with access from Woodborough Lane (B684) to the western boundary.

The traditional red brick building is of single storey construction under metal profile sheet roof with numerous doorways and windows. The building extends to about 850 sq.ft. (GEA) and internally comprises a single room. We believe the traditional building may well have potential for alternative uses including conversion to residential or commercial use, subject to the necessary consents.

In addition, there is a timber-framed double Harlow field shelter and a timber-framed double stable block.

Water is connected to lot 2 and electricity is currently provided by way of a generator.

The boundaries generally comprise mature hedgerows most of which are stock proof with some post and rail/wire fencing to the eastern parcel. Both fields are fenced with high-tensile sheep net

The land is let by way of a grazing agreement in part.

If sold separately to Lot 1, then the purchaser of Lot 2 will be required to erect new fence lines where required between the lots.

Land Type and Cropping History
The land to the north of the farmhouse is classified as being principally Grade 3. The land to the south of the farmhouse is classified as being principally Grade 2 with a small area of Grade 3.

According to Soilscape (England) the soils may be described as slightly acid loamy and clayey soils with impeded drainage. Such soils are well suited to autumn sown crops and grassland.

The arable land has been farmed sensitively and sustainably for a number of years with direct drilling and a minimal tillage approach. The soils have been managed exceptionally well as is evident upon inspection.

The pastureland has been utilised principally for livestock grazing.

The farmland commands a really interesting topography forming the majority of the Woodborough Valley. The land sits between 240 feet to 460 feet above sea level providing some spectacular amenity appeal.
