A productive riverside pasture offered as Lot 1 (about 4.82 acres) within a larger three‑lot holding close to Hereford. The parcel benefits from road frontage onto Sutton Road and Worcester Road, generous, level grassland and long River Lugg frontage (a designated SSSI) that supports diverse flora and attractive grazing potential. An initial ecological scoping suggests the wider holding could deliver biodiversity net gain (BNG) units, which will appeal to conservation‑minded purchasers and investors seeking environmental uplift opportunities.
Practical considerations are clear and should form part of any offer. The land lies within the River Lugg flood plain and contributes a small annual payment to the River Lugg Internal Drainage Board for maintenance. Lot 1 is sold subject to a 40% uplift overage for 50 years, payable on change of use or development (non‑agricultural/equestrian). Lot 3 includes Midsummer Meadow, a registered Common (CL148) with third‑party grazing rights; a public footpath also crosses Lot 3.
There are no connected services and the land is freehold with vacant possession. The holding sits within a Minerals Safeguarding and Preferred Area under local planning policy, and the Basic Payment Scheme delinked payments are reserved to the vendor. Buyers interested in BNG or other planning potential should make independent enquiries; an ecologist’s scoping report is available on request but any BNG yield quoted should be independently verified.
This lot will suit farmers seeking additional grazing, conservation purchasers, or investors targeting BNG opportunities and riverside pasture. It’s best viewed with due regard for the common rights, overage provision and flood‑plain status so that expectations match the site’s legal and environmental constraints.
