A sizeable 2.3-acre parcel of pasture on the outskirts of the hamlet of Cross, sitting at the foot of the Mendip Hills with wide rural views and easy road access to the A38. The plot is mainly grassed, edged by hedgerow and mature trees, and benefits from a natural watering channel (Middle Rhyne) beside the access from Old Coach Road. A nearby water main may allow a connection but buyers must make their own enquiries.
This lot will be offered for sale by in-room and livestream auction. The land is sold freehold with vacant possession and is currently suitable for agricultural or equestrian use; any alternative use or development would be subject to planning and a development clawback (50% of any increase in value for 30 years) payable to the seller for uses other than agricultural or equestrian.
Important constraints and costs are clear: the land lies within an SSSI impact risk zone, and the Environment Agency mapping shows low surface water flood risk but a medium risk from rivers and the sea. There is a third-party right of way crossing the plot. Successful purchasers at auction will face an administration fee, a contribution of £750 plus VAT towards the seller’s costs, and reimbursement of search fees as set out in the contract.
This is a straightforward rural parcel for buyers seeking pasture, grazing or long-term land investment close to the Mendips and convenient for Bridgwater and Bristol. Interested parties should review the auction pack, make enquiries about services and planning, and note the specified easements and wayleaves before bidding.
